Football Prediction
After a thrilling win 4-3 over Tottenham, Chelsea take a long journey to Kazakhstan’s capital to play Astana, having won all of their four matches in all competitions. Astana begin their fifth match of UEFA 2024/25 Europa Conference league phase this season. They have managed one victory with one draw and two defeats in their opening four matches. Astana come into this one on the back of a their most recent outing being in this competition a couple of weeks ago when they pulled off an impressive 1-1 draw against Portuguese side Vitoria Guimaraes
Chelsea will be looking to maintain their 100% in the competition. The Blues have won all four matches in the league phase, scoring 18 goals and conceding just three, with their latest victory a 2-0 win over Heidenheim in Germany. Their league form should be separated from their European form given how different the teams have been that they have used but they have also been excellent in the league

Both teams have not met in any major event.
Team News
Astana have a fully fit and available squad for this week’s clash against Chelsea with no fresh injury concerns or suspension issues. After their impressive 1-1 draw against Vitoria, there would appear no reason for them to make any changes.
On the other hand, Chelsea will be without several players in their squad. Cesare Casadei is now missing through suspension due to a red card against Heidenheim. Mykhaylo Mudryk has been key, too, but he missed the weekend due to illness and he might be unavailable. Fofana limped off against Aston Villa and he isn’t expected to be back by the new year. Chelsea captain James is again sidelined, having suffered another hamstring injury during a training session in November.
