Chelsea vs Noah predictions The Conference League is often seen as an inconvenience to clubs with bigger aspirations, but it is actually serving a useful purpose for Chelsea this season. For one, it provides Enzo Maresca with a good chance to win a trophy in his debut campaign at the helm. As part of the various revamps ahead of 2024/25, there is no longer any movement between the three European competitions. That means the winner of the Conference League is guaranteed to be one of the 36 clubs currently taking part in the tournament. Chelsea are the bookmakers’ favourites to lift the trophy. Fiorentina and Real Betis will also have designs on the prize, but the Blues are widely seen as the team to beat. The Conference League is useful to Chelsea for another reason too. Maresca inherited a remarkably bloated squad after the spending sprees of recent years. The Italian has sensibly settled on a preferred 13 or 14 players in the Premier League, allowing his favoured team to build the cohesion and balance necessary for a top-four push. However, that policy means there is little domestic game time available to fringe members of the Chelsea squad, of which there are many. The Conference League gives Maresca the chance to keep those players reasonably fresh and temporarily satisfied. It also gives the understudies an opportunity to stake their claim for a more regular role in the Premier League. Maresca opted to leave Cole Palmer, Wesley Fofana and Romeo Lavia out of the Conference League squad entirely. The former is Chelsea’s most important player, while the latter duo are both on the road back from long-term injuries. Even without that trio, Chelsea have more than enough quality at their disposal to finish in the top eight of the league phase and thus qualify directly for the round of 16. The squads are then resubmitted ahead of the knockout phase. The Blues are top of the table heading into matchday three thanks to victories over Gent (4-2) and Panathinaikos (4-1). Eight other teams have maximum points after two rounds of fixtures, but no one can match Chelsea’s +5 goal difference. It would be a major shock if Maresca’s men did not move onto nine points on Thursday night. Chelsea vs Noah betting tips. 18+ GambleAware.org – Please play responsibly.

Joao Felix to score any time
Joao Felix has not had much of a look-in in the Premier League since he sealed a return to Stamford Bridge towards the end of the summer transfer window.
The Portugal international has been restricted to just five substitute appearances totalling 118 minutes so far.
He did not even make it off the bench in Chelsea’s last three top-flight contests against Liverpool, Newcastle United and Manchester United.
Felix has been a fixture in the Conference League, though, playing the full games against Gent and Panathinaikos.
He notched a brace in that second match and, given he will probably be in the starting XI when Noah come to town, we like his chances of getting his name on the scoresheet here too.
