Chelsea vs Legia Warsaw Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | UEFA Conference League 2024-25
Enzo Maresca’s men secured an easy win over Legia Warsaw in the first leg.
Chelsea are all set to meet Legia Warsaw at home for the UEFA Conference League 2024-25 quarter-final second leg. The Blues will have the advantage as the second leg is all set to be played at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea have shown some decent performances in the English Premier League this season, but their UEFA Conference League campaign has been brilliant. The Blues have not dropped a single point in their UECL campaign in the ongoing season. They are also the top attacking side in this European competition.
After securing a 3-0 win over Legia Warszawa in the first leg, the Blues were held to a draw in their league match against Ipswich Town. Because of their poor defence, Chelsea conceded a couple of goals in the first half. Jadon Sancho helped the Blues secure a point after an important equaliser.
Legia Warsaw are also showing some decent performances in the Ekstraklasa this season. The same can be said for their UECL campaign for this season. After competing in six Conference League games, they secured four wins. The comeback against Chelsea is going to be a tough task for them.
After losing to Enzo Maresca’s men in the first leg, Legia Warsaw also lost their league match. They have a big task on their hands as they have a mountain to climb. As per their current form, the visitors have fewer chances of making it to the next stage.

Players to Watch
Jadon Sancho (Chelsea)
The English winger will be leading the attack from the right, which makes him dangerous for the opponent’s defence. The Blues have a good attacking front, and despite having the advantage, Jadon Sancho can help his side yet again.
Sancho scored an important equaliser for Chelsea in their last Premier League game against Ipswich Town, which helped them earn a point. Although he has not showcased the best performances this season, Sancho is still very valuable for the Blues in the attacking front.
Luquinhas (Legia Warsaw)
The Brazilian midfielder has done well for Legia Warsaw in the UEFA Conference League this season. From controlling the midfield to scoring goals, Luquinhas has come up with some decent performances. To lead his team to the next stage, he will have to drop a top performance here.
Luquinhas has been able to score four goals in eight UECL games this season and will be looking to add to his tally. It is going to be a tough second leg for Legia Warsaw.
