Our prediction: Chelsea v Rennes
Lampard's Chelsea machine is just beginning to purr and they will be more than confident of securing three points on their own patch.
Rennes could make it a bit of a sticky wicket for their hosts but an away-day win would certainly be considered an upset.
While the Blues might not have it all their own way, they should have more than enough to get over the line in the end.
Our prediction: Chelsea 2 - 0 Rennes
