Chelsea is a really interesting team when it comes to the Champions League. They always seem the underdog in this tournament. But they are always one of the teams to be careful against in the Champions League. Because they have played completely different here for long years. It is like they have been caring about this title more than the Premier League title in the meantime. I don't see other explanation to their success here in the recent years. We can give the 2020/21 season as an example for this. While not many people were thinking of them to win the CL title they just made it.

There is a question occupying my mind like whether this would be another season similar to that. But on the other hand I just don't give it much chance. Because we still haven't seen an example of a strong performance. They struggled against even Dinamo Zagreb so I don't know what they can do against the biggest title contenders.

Edin Terzic said that facing Chelsea in the Champions League last 16 match later, Borussia Dortmund seems to have a better performance than Chelsea. Especially the record in the domestic league because Borussia Dortmund occupies fourth place in the 2022-2023 German League standings. Meanwhile, Chelsea is in seventh place in the 2022-2023 Premier League standings.
But even though Chelsea are not performing well at the start of the 2022-2023 season, Dortmund coach Edin Terzic admits that Chelsea is one of the most successful teams in Europe. He referred to the Blues' winning record in the 2020-2021 Champions League

As long as we are talking about this season Chelsea is not winning any trophy be it the UCL or EPL,their present condition before the world cup break shows this, I don't see any magic that will be done when the world cup is over since the problem in the club has not been treated.

Chelsea is not going to get to the finals in UCL and might get knocked out in the round of 16 if they don't improve in their pattern of football. Chelsea players might be performing pretty good in the world cup is not a guarantee for them to perform excellently in UCL,we still have good clubs that are talented and have good experience in CL as long as these clubs are still in the tournament it will be hard for Chelsea to win the trophy.
