Nonetheless, Chelsea’s next three games include another London derby on the horizon as they travel to the London Stadium to face West Ham United next weekend, after which they face Borussia Dortmund in the last 16 of the UEFA Champions League, with the first leg of that tie taking place in Germany on February 15. Three days later, Chelsea will host Southampton in the Premier League at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea’s Next 3 games:
West Ham vs. Chelsea Saturday 11th of February
Dortmund vs. Chelsea, Wednesday, February 15
Chelsea vs. Southampton Saturday 18th of February
