Chelsea v Marseille
Verdict: Chelsea will look to rebound from their 1-0 Premier League defeat at the hands of Manchester City when they welcome Marseille. Chelsea looked one-paced and missed the creative influence of Lampard and Benayoun. Marseille come into this game on the back of a 2-1 win over Sochaux in Ligue 1 as they welcomed the return of Souleymane Diawara from injury while striker Loic Remy made his home debut.
Despite their shortcomings on the domestic front, Chelsea won their first game of the group stages at a canter with a 4-1 result at Zilina. Marseille in turn lost 0-1 via an unfortunate own goal in their respective group game against Spartak Moscow, despite dominating with 8 shots on goal to the Russians' one. Didier Deschamps men will be desperate to get something from this game while his opposite number, Carlo Ancelotti, will have to figure a way of unlocking an organized outfit. The visitors arrive at Stamford Bridge with a fully fit squad for the first time this season while Drogba is suspended.
Pick: Marseille +1.25AH @1.92 (sbobet, 10 units)
