Team Analysis
Servette Geneva faces a formidable challenge in overturning a 2-0 deficit from the first leg against Chelsea. Despite starting their season with three consecutive victories, their form has dipped, managing only one win in their last six matches. However, their performance at Stamford Bridge was commendable, as they managed to outshoot Chelsea in both total attempts and shots on target. Servette's focus is now on making a strong comeback at home, where they aim to leverage the support of their fans.

Chelsea enters this match in high spirits after a convincing 6-2 win over Wolverhampton in the Premier League. Key players like Palmer and Madueke have been in excellent form, contributing significantly to their recent success. With a comfortable lead from the first leg, Chelsea is expected to make some rotations in their squad, yet they remain the favorites to progress. The depth of their squad allows them to maintain high performance levels even with changes.

Head-to-Head
These teams met for the first time in the initial leg of this Europa Conference League qualifier, where Chelsea secured a 2-0 victory at home. Despite Servette's resilience, Chelsea's class shone through, giving them a significant advantage heading into the second leg.

Prediction
Chelsea is favored to win and advance, given their superior squad and the lead from the first leg. However, Servette's potential to create scoring opportunities suggests that the match could be more competitive than the scoreline might suggest. A 3-1 victory for Chelsea is a likely outcome, with the game expected to have over 2.5 total goals. Servette's ambition to stage a comeback could lead to an open game, increasing the chances of a high-scoring affair.

Pick: Over 2.5 goals
