Chelsea must keep first leg with Barca close

ANTONIO CONTE’S Chelsea enter into a crucial few weeks as they look to take some pride from a season to forget for the reigning Premier League champions.

With Manchester City romping home, Chelsea’s title defence is all over, but, with Conte publicly critical of the club’s lack of support in boosting the squad, supporters are hopeful that they can still clinch some silverware and end a torrid season on a high.

It starts tomorrow tonight with the visit of Spanish giants Barcelona, as Conte’s team renew rivalries with an old foe in the Champions League.
