Flying high after Saturday’s Cole Palmer masterclass, Chelsea are back at Stamford Bridge on Thursday night to kick off their Europa Conference League challenge by hosting KAA Gent.

Palmer, whose £45m move from Man City continues to look like an absolute bargain, became the first player to score four goals in the first half of a Premier League fixture as he inspired the West Londoners to a 4-2 victory over the Seagulls.

The attention now shifts to the Europa Conference League, with the Blues the favourites to win Europe’s third-string club competition in the inaugural year of the brand new format.

The group stages have been replaced by a league phase. Clubs will play eight games – four at home and four away – after which the top eight sides will automatically reach the last 16 and places 9th to 24th will face off in a two-legged play-off to join them.

Up first for Enzo Maresca’s side are Gent, who are enjoying a strong start to the new Belgian Pro League campaign and sit third after nine games. Blues fans may want to keep an eye out for Andri Gudjohnsen, the 22-year-old son of former Stamford Bridge favourite Eidur who plays up top and has two goals to his name this term already.
