Chelsea come up against a tough test on Tuesday when they travel to play Paris Saint-Germain in their Champions Leaguelast 16 tie in the French capital.
The two sides have met in each of the last two seasons, with PSG overcoming Chelsea on away goals at the same stage last term. The Premier League champions progressed past the Ligue 1 side in the quarter-finals the season before, similarly, on away goals.
Next week's meeting will perhaps be an even more interesting clash, though, considering that Chelsea have managed to pick themselves back up under Guus Hiddink following their disastrous start to the campaign.
Meanwhile, Laurent Blanc's side have blown their opposition away in France's top flight - recently setting a new record of 32 games without defeat in Ligue 1.
However, Chelsea will be boosted by the fact that they thrashed Newcastle United 5-1 on Saturday although one negative from the game was the injury suffered by captain John Terry.
