Unlike in other matches, the focus of tonight's pre-match routine is the 3Arena pitch, which has managed to anger both sets of managers and players due to its sub-par quality.

Djurgarden manager Jani Honkavaara said that the plastic pitch is "really tough for both us and our opponents", calling it "horrible" ahead of kick-off.

The referee blows his whistle, and we are underway at the 3Arena! Stay tuned for key events from the match.

DIF 0-0 CHE (0')

The home side are in no mood to sit back and defend in this match, and Keita Kosugi shows nimble footwork to burst down the left flank and play in a cross, but Jorgensen collects it.

Meanwhile, Noni Madueke gets an effort off at Djurgarden's goal, but it's rising high.

DIF 0-0 CHE (5')

Despite Djurgarden's early push, Chelsea FC go forward as Jadon Sancho is the one who gets his name in the scoresheet. The main work is done by Enzo Fernandez, who crosses from the right side of the box to find Sancho on the left, and his shot is deflected in by Danielson past Rinne's goal.

DIF 0-1 CHE (12')

Wow, that's a good chance for Marc Cucurella. The Spaniard finds himself in the box with the ball, and Djurgarden defence is a mess trying to clear the ball. Cucurella lets go with a low shot towards the bottom light corner, but it's just wide.

The Blues continue to push forward, despite fielding a young starting lineup. The home side finally manage to make a foray into Chelsea's final third, but nothing comes of it.

DIF 0-1 CHE (19')

The home side are pretty much unable to get out of their half at the moment, throwing most of the players behind the ball in order to keep the damage down to one before half-time. Chelsea are piling on pressure, with Jadon Sancho's ball into hte box somehow cut out by the defenders.

DIF 0-1 CHE (28')

Another chhance goes begging for Chelsea. Reece James plays a terrific lobbed ball over the defenders and it finds Noni Madueke, but the English striker can't beat Rinne in a one-on-one situation. The Chelsea player attempts for an audiacious chip, but Rinne was alert and gets a hand to tip it over the bar.

Meanwhile, Rinne goes down, struggling with something, and the physios are on. Worrying signs for the home side.

DIF 0-1 CHE (34')

The immense pressure that Chelsea piled on the Djurgarden goal finally pays off. After a penalty shout from Tyrique George was waved on and Cucurella's effort barely cleared out by the defence, Noni Madueke gets the second goal for the Blues.

Dewsbury-Hall, with all the time in the world, finds Enzo Fernandez, and his ball to Madueke is inch perfect. The forward does not disappoint, hitting a curler that goes past Rinne in the lower corner of the near post.

DIF 0-2 CHE (43')

Two minutes of added time are played, and the referee blows his whistle to give Djurgarden a much-needed respite.

DIF 0-2 CHE (HT)

The second half is underway at the 3Arena, and Chelsea have made four half-time changes.

Moises Caicedo, Nicolas Jakcson, Cole Palmer, Trevoh Chalobah IN

Reece James, Noni Madueke, Enzo Fernandez, Marc Cucurella OUT

DIF 0-2 CHE (45')

Woah! Djurgarden almost pulls a rabbit out of the hat, as a floated corner delivery is not cleared properly by Chelsea defenders, and it falls to Hampus Finndell, but his shot is just wide of the goal, missing Jorgensen's left post by inches.

DIF 0-2 CHE (50')

Despite the changes made by Chelsea, it's Djurgarden who are playing better in the second half, going forward with a sort of urgency. The Blues are feelinga bit of pressure now.

Stahl is the one who had the best of chances, but his header is pushed out by Jorgensen.

DIF 0-2 CHE (55')

Despite all their brilliant forward forays, Djurgarden concede another goal, and it's Nicolas Jackson this time. Cole Palmer threads in a ball, but Rinne and Stahl -- who came close a few minutes ago with his header -- fail to clear the ball. The miscommunication allows Jackson to steal the ball before the goalkeeper can collect it, and pass it into an empty net.

DIF 0-3 CHE (59')

It's a second goal for Nicolas Jackson in six minutes, and Chelsea add another to their tally. The home side are again lax in defence, as Moises Caidedo robs the defender and passes it to Jackson, who curls the ball past Rinne and finds the top corner.

DIF 0-4 CHE (65')

It's madness here at Stockholm, as Isak Alemayehu pulls one back for the home side four minutes after coming on. He meets Tobias Gulliksen's cross from the left wing with his head, and it bounces past Jorgensen. The youngster gets his first senior goal, but it's too little too late for Djurgarden.

DIF 1-4 CHE (68')

Alemayehu's goal has given Djurgarden a bit of incentive to push forward, but Chelsea are defending well with numbers behind the ball. The Blues do not want to concede another goal.

DIF 1-4 CHE (75')

The excitement after the break has died down a little. Chelsea have barely attempted to go forward, with Palmer's tame curling effort their only shot in the last 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, Djurgarden are trying to best to break the Chelsea defence, which is proving to be a tough ask at the moment. The home fans are shouting at the top of their voice, though.

DIF 1-4 CHE (85')

16-year-old Reggie Walsh almost gets a goal with his first touch after coming on, as he receives a ball from the aedge of the box and lets a shot towards the bottom corner, but Rinne gets down quickly to catch it.

The fourth official indicates at least two minutes of added time.

DIF 1-4 CHE (90')

What a game this was, but it comes to an end as the referee blows the final whistle. The Blues will take a three-goal cushion to London, but they will be slightly disappointed at not keeping a clean sheet.

DIF 1-4 CHE (FT)
