Krasnodar's recent form has been underwhelming enough without taking into account the numerous absentees that Musaev must deal with for the daunting visit of Chelsea. The Blues have experienced their fair share of troubles on the attacking front recently but will feel confident of notching up a few goals at the Stadion Krasnodar in midweek, so we are backing Chelsea to record their first Champions League victory of the season in convincing fashion on Wednesday.

FC Krasnodar
- This will be first ever competitive meeting between FK Krasnodar and Chelsea. The Russian side are unbeaten in their previous two games against English teams in all competitions (W1 D1), with both matches coming against Everton in the 2014-15 UEFA Europa League.
- FK Krasnodar will compete in their first ever home match in the UEFA Champions League - none of the previous six Russian sides won their first home game in the competition (D4 L2).
- Krasnodar's inaugural game in the Champions League group stages saw the Russian Premier League outfit take on early Ligue 1 high-flyers Rennes, although the French outfit had started to see their results worsen prior to the visit of Krasnodar last week.
Chelsea
- Chelsea have won five of their six European encounters with Russian opponents (L1), winning all four UEFA Champions League outings.
- Chelsea have lost just one of their last 11 away games in European competition (W7 D3), although lost their last away game versus Bayern Munich (1-4).
- Kai Havertz has been involved in six goals in his last six games in European competition (4 goals, 2 assists), though he's failed to register a single goal involvement in his nine UEFA Champions League appearances so far.
