The Chelsea players arrived in Greece late yesterday afternoon in preparation for tonight’s matchup with Panathinaikos of the Greek Pro League.
As the weather in Greece gets a little warmer today and tomorrow, some blues enthusiasts might decide to take a little vacation, and who can blame them? A journey to Athens is not at all unpleasant!Since their opponents haven’t been playing well in their league this season and haven’t been as successful as they have been in former years, Chelsea won’t really know what to expect from them today.
I have predicted Enzo Maresca’s anticipated lineup for this evening because he will have to make some significant starting XL selections.Joao Felix, Filip Jorgensen, Christopher Nkunku, and others were training in Greece last night after arriving in the nation, according to information posted on the Chelsea website overnight.

In addition to making it two victories out of three in the Champions League league phase, City’s outcome gives them a record that is unmatched.
Man City has now gone 26 games without a loss in Europe’s top league, which is the longest streak in the competition’s history.
Prior to this, City had a 25-game winning streak, which was equal to the previous record set by rival Manchester United.From 2007 to 2009, the Red Devils won 25 straight Champions League games.
This included their historic triumph over Chelsea in the Champions League final in Moscow in May 2008.
Frank Lampard cancelled out Cristiano Ronaldo’s opening goal in that game, and the Red Devils prevailed on penalties after John Terry and Nicolas Anelka missed kicks.
Man City’s 2022–2023 Champions League triumph is part of their current run.
