Slavia Prague
Slavia Prague began this season looking to progress through to the group stages of the Champions League for just the second time in their history, but Cervenobili have now put themselves into a position where they are in contention for their first-ever European trophy.

There was huge disappointment when Slavia suffered a 3-1 aggregate defeat to Dynamo Kiev back in August, but Jindrich Trpisovsky's side have been able to battle their way through the Europa League group stages and two knockout ties to earn a rare appearance at this stage of the competition.

Slavia made it through to the semi-finals of the UEFA Cup during the 1995-96 campaign, and they have overcome the odds to leave themselves in the last eight on this occasion.
Slavia will be without Tomas Soucek after the ever-present midfielder picked up his third yellow card of the competition in the second leg against Sevilla.
Slavia Prague possible starting lineup:
Kolar; Kudela, Ngadeu-Ngadjui, Deli; Coufal, Traore, Husbauer, Kral, Boril; Stoch; Skoda
Recent form: LWDWDW
Recent form (all competitions): WWWDWW

Chelsea
Chelsea head into the first leg of their Europa League quarter-final with Slavia Prague having put together a run of seven wins from nine matches in all competitions.
Slavia Prague currently hold a seven-point lead in Czech Republic's top flight, while Jindrich Trpisovsky's side got the better of Sevilla in the last 16 of this competition.
Sarri will make a number of changes to his starting lineup with Sunday's fixture with Liverpool in mind, and that will see the likes of Willian, Pedro and Giroud all earn a recall.
Andreas Christensen will replace either Antonio Rudiger or David Luiz in the centre of defence, while Marcos Alonso could return from injury to take the place of Emerson Palmieri.
Jorginho could get the nod over N'Golo Kante - with Mateo Kovacic replacing the Frenchman in midfield - and Ross Barkley is likely to be preferred to Ruben Loftus-Cheek.
Kepa Arrizabalaga should start ahead of Willy Caballero between the sticks, but the likes of Eden Hazard, Hudson-Odoi and Gonzalo Higuain will likely have to make do with a spot among the replacements.
Chelsea possible starting lineup:
Arrizabalaga; Azpilicueta, Rudiger, Christensen, Alonso; Kovacic, Jorginho, Barkley; Willian, Giroud, Pedro
Recent form: WDWWWW
Recent form (all competitions): DWLWWW

Head To Head
These two clubs will be meeting in a competitive encounter for the first time in their history.
Chelsea are undefeated in six matches against opposition from the Czech Republic, with their most recent contest coming against Sparta Prague in the last 32 of this competition in 2013.
Slavia Prague are facing English opposition for the first time since losing to Aston Villa in the UEFA Cup during the 2008-09 campaign.
