FC Schalke 04 and FC Basel 1893 meet to decide who takes the second qualifying place in Group E alongside Chelsea FC. • Basel's second victory against the London side has give them a one-point advantage over their opponents, so a draw will be enough for them whereas Schalke have to win. The German side triumphed 1-0 in Switzerland on matchday two, however, courtesy of a superb half-volley from Julian Draxler. • Should Chelsea lose at home to FC Steaua Bucureşti, the winners in Gelsenkirchen will top the group; a draw would put Basel in first place. Also, a Chelsea draw would leave the English side top as long as Basel do not win. • Schalke started with a 3-0 home success against FC Steaua Bucureşti although they lost by the same score to Chelsea in their other Gelsenkirchen fixture. • Basel won 2-1 at Chelsea on matchday one but were held to a 1-1 draw at Steaua in their other away game.
