Chelsea secured a dominant 4-1 victory over Djurgarden in the first leg of the Conference League semi-final, putting them in a strong position for the return match at Stamford Bridge. Goals from Jadon Sancho and Noni Madueke gave Chelsea a 2-0 lead at halftime, with Nicolas Jackson scoring twice after coming on as a substitute. Despite a late consolation goal from Djurgarden's Isak Alemayehu, the match's outcome left Chelsea with a high probability of winning the trophy, which could complete their European trophy collection.
Nicolas Jackson came off the bench to score two goals in six second-half minutes to seal a comfortable win ahead of next week's second leg at Stamford Bridge.
According to Opta's supercomputer, the Blues have a 61% chance of winning this trophy as it stands. If they do go on to do that, it will make them the first club to complete the full set of European trophies.
