For the first time in 29 years, Legia Warsaw advanced to the UEFA Conference League quarter-finals after overturning a first-leg defeat by Molde.
Legia Warsaw reversed their fate in the Round of 16. They turned a first-leg setback against Molde into a thrilling comeback that earned them a spot among the last eight teams.
This quarter-final marks their first European stage appearance in 29 years. Moreover, they enjoy a strong domestic form that boosts their confidence. In their last three home games, they recorded two wins and one draw while scoring seven and conceding one.
It is important to note that their only previous UEFA knockout tie against an English side ended in a loss. In the 1990/91 European Cup Winners’ Cup semi-final, they were defeated by Manchester United with an aggregate score of four to two.
However, their recent performances offer hope. They have secured three successive victories in European home games against English teams. Additionally, they achieved clean sheets in four out of five home matches in this season’s competition, which reinforces their belief in causing an upset.
Meanwhile, Chelsea have excelled in the UEFA Conference League. Although they experienced a goalless draw against Brentford in the Premier League, they have dominated in continental competition. They have won every fixture since matchday one, and a recent victory over Copenhagen secured their nineteenth quarter-final appearance.
Furthermore, another win over the two legs would propel Chelsea into their first UEFA semi-final since 2021, the season they claimed the Champions League. Although they have no experience facing a Polish side, their current form and record in European two-legged ties underline their favorite status.
Key players add excitement to this clash. Legia midfielder Ryoya Morishita has scored in three of his last four Conference League appearances, always before half-time. Equally, Enzo Fernández netted two away goals for Chelsea in one of their recent matches, including a strike against Copenhagen.
A hot statistic shows that Legia have not conceded after half-time in any of their six competitive home games in 2025. This fact adds further spark to their quest for an upset.
