Chelsea head into their opening Champions League encounter of the season hoping to get off to a fast start against the weakest team – on paper – in Group E.

The Blues have been drawn against AC Milan and RB Leipzig, so they will hope for no mistakes against the Croatian giants here.

Thomas Tuchel is under pressure to deliver after being heavily backed in the transfer window. His main focus will be the Premier League this year, but a strong showing in the Champions League would reinforce his position in charge.

Wesley Fofana is likely to start again as he gets up to speed, while Raheem Sterling will be motivated to land the trophy that eluded him at Manchester City.

Dinamo are Champions League regulars and reached the group stage after defeating Bodo/Glimt in the play-offs.

Our prediction: Dinamo Zagreb v Chelsea

This may be a favourable fixture for Chelsea, but a trip to Croatia is never an easy task given the atmosphere generated by the home fans. Tuchel will hope his men toughen up after admitting they have been too easy to defeat in 2022/23. A gritty win would suit the Blues.

Our prediction: Dinamo Zagreb 0-2 Chelsea (6/1 at bet365)
