The Czechs have got a big job on their hands if they are to overturn the 1-0 deficit in England.
Slavia have won only two of their five Europa League matches on the road this term, conceding six goals.
They have shown signs that they are capable of performing away, hammering Genk 4-1 and also holding Sevilla to a 2-2 draw.
But Chelsea are so strong at Stamford Bridge and have netted at least three goals in their last four Europa League games there.
And with the competition’s top-scorer Olivier Giroud in their ranks it is unlikely Prague will keep the hosts at bay.
