When Chelsea and Porto get together in Champions League play, it's normally with the Premier League side leaving victorious.
The Blues have defeated the Dragões five times out of eight total meetings, including the teams' lone knockout series (a 3-2 aggregate victory for Chelsea in 2006-07). Now they get together again for a quarterfinal match-up that will be played entirely on neutral soil due to COVID-19 restrictions.
The first leg gets underway Wednesday in Seville, Spain (which will also serve as host for next week's second leg), and the lack of home-field advantage could come into play. More likely to have an effect is the form of the two sides ahead of Wednesday's match, as Chelsea's won just two of the last five league matches while Porto's in the midst of a four-match winning streak in Liga NOS.
With Porto firing on all cylinders domestically, will Chelsea still be favoured to advance?
Here's everything you need to know about Wednesday's first leg:
