Previous meetings • Home sides held the upper hand in the teams' only previous fixtures, in the 2008/09 group stage. Luiz Felipe Scolari's Chelsea won the first game 1-0 in London, John Terry getting the only goal in the 77th minute. • The teams at Stamford Bridge on 22 October 2008 were: Chelsea: Čech, Bosingwa, Carvalho, Terry, Bridge, Mikel, Deco, Malouda (Belletti 46), Lampard, Kalou (Di Santo 77), Anelka (Paulo Ferreira 90+3). Roma: Doni, Cicinho, Panucci, Mexès, Riise (Tonetto 82), Aquilani (Perrotta 61), Taddei (Ménez 81), De Rossi, Brighi, Totti, Vučinić. • The Italian side, then coached by Luciano Spalletti, turned the tables on 4 November, a goal from Christian Panucci (34) and a Mirko Vučinić double (48, 58) securing a 3-1 home victory at the Stadio Olimpico despite Terry's 75th- minute reply for Chelsea, who lost Nicolas Anelka to a second booking nine minutes from time. Match background Chelsea • This is Chelsea's first meeting with Italian opponents since the 2012/13 group stage, when they collected one point from two games against Juventus; Roberto Di Matteo's side were held 2-2 at home before a 3-0 reverse in Turin helped seal their early exit, becoming the first holders to fail to get through the following season's group stage. • Chelsea's home record against Italian clubs is W5 D2 L2. • Conte's side are the early leaders in Group C having beaten debutants Qarabağ FK 6-0 on matchday one before Michy Batshuayi secured a 2-1 victory at Club Atlético de Madrid with the final kick of the game.
