Their coach, Jani Honkavaara, is aware of the challenges ahead. "We have to focus on playing a good match," he said. "The first goal of the night will change the game. If Chelsea scores first, it will be a tough night for us."
Chelsea is competing for a spot in the Champions League, so Honkavaara hopes they might make some changes to their lineup. "I don't know how they'll approach the match," he said. "They might rest some players to ensure they qualify for the Champions League next year."
Coach Honkavaara believes that scoring the first goal will be crucial for DIF. "We'll need to score twice to have a chance," he said. "If we start the game well, our chances will be better. Scoring a second goal will keep the game alive."
