Chelsea vs. Maribor, 2014 UEFA Champions League: Lineups


Chelsea have a mixed team to take on Maribor.


Jose Mourinho has played with his lineup for yet another Champions League match. It's hardly a terrible team, as Mourinho has picked a good chunk of first choice players, but the likes of Kurt Zouma and Didier Drogba are also getting starts.


Maribor have a young team, with two teenagers in the starting XI. That includes 18-year-old Luka Zahovic, the red hot striker who is hoping to carry his league form to Europe.


The good news for Chelsea is that they sit top of Group G with seven points, two clear of second place Schalke. They can clinch advancement today, but that is pretty much a foregone conclusion. They are focused on winning the group, while Maribor are trying to make up the three point difference between them and Schalke.


Maribor: Jasmin Handanovic, Petar Stojanovic, Aleksander Rajcevic, Arghus, Mitja Viler, Agim Ibraimi, Mertelj, Zeljko Filipovic, Sintayehu Sallalich, Marcos Tavares, Luka Zahovic


Chelsea: Petr Cech; Branislav Ivanovic, Kurt Zouma, John Terry, Filipe Luis; Nemanja Matic, Cesc Fabregas; Andre Schurrle, Willian, Eden Hazard; Didier Drogba.
