In what surely will be a highly competitive matchup of the Europa League, the Chelsea side will face off against FC Basel on Thursday at St. Jakob-Park.

Chelsea's chances in the semifinals matchup doesn't look as promising as it once did, as the club has continued to perform under par on the road in the Europa over the past few seasons.

The team has also been getting off to slow starts, which could be due to their energy levels, having played 60 games already this season.

Nonetheless, Chelsea defenders will have to be extra cautious of Egyptian winger Mohamed Salah, who is coming off a strong performance against Tottenham.

Chelsea striker Fernando Torres recently stated that the potential to win in the Europa is what keeps the team pushing for more.
