Chelsea v AC Milan, UEFA Champions League Group E 3rd leg match is scheduled for Wednesday 5th October from 22:00 at Stamford Bridge live on Digi Sport 1, Prima Sport 1 and Orange Sport 1.
“Chelsea” did not overcome the shock of the internal changes that took place this summer, when Russian Roman Abramovich had to sell the club to a consortium under the patronage of American Todd Boley for 4.68 billion euros.
The new boss of the London group also owns, together with one of the partners, the Los Angeles Lakers basketball team and the Los Angeles Dodgers baseball team.
The decline continued at the team level: the Blues are only 5th in the Premier League with 13 points after seven games (leaders Arsenal have 21 points, but from eight games), and in the Champions League they unexpectedly lost at home to Zagreb “Dynamo” with a score of 0:1, and at home they drew with “RB Salzburg” (1:1).
Between the two matches in Europe, Thomas Tuchel was sent off, and Graham Potter, brought in from the exposure of Brighton, was put in his place.
AC Milan, the reigning Italian champions, opened the new UEFA Champions League season with a 1-1 draw against RB Salzburg before winning 3-1 at the San Siro against Dynamo Zagreb.
The Devils are also doing well in Serie A, after eight rounds they are in 4th place with 17 points, three less than the leader Napoli.

The Romanian keeper was brought in after Mike Menian’s injury and is also a good chance to defend with Chelsea, although he was at fault in the goal conceded in his side’s 3-1 away win at Empoli (it’s hard to believe manager Stefano Pioli will bet on Antonio Mirante, 39, who has not played an official match since April 2021).
Chelsea and AC Milan have only met twice in the Champions League, specifically in the 1999-2000 edition, in Group H, when they drew each time, 0-0 in London and 1-1 in Milan.
From 2004 to 2014, there were eight friendly matches: the Italians won one, the English won six times, and a draw was recorded once.
Superbet offers odds of 1.85 on at least three goals scored in the match between Chelsea and Milan.
