Chelsea sits atop the Premier League standings with 60 points. The Blues bounced back from their Feb. 15 Premier League loss to Manchester City with a 1-0 win on Saturday against Everton. Although Chelsea is the favorite to advance against Galatasaray, Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho isn't discounting his opponent.
"I like to play against the best and Galatasaray are the Turkish champions," Mourinho said, via IB Times. "Last season Galatasaray made it very difficult for me with Real Madrid and this year will be no different. They were a good team and they have almost exactly the same team, but have strengthened with a few extra players.
"We are going to play to win, but we know they are strong and have special attacking players. They have lots of goalscorers and we know they will attack us. We are trying to build a team for the future and we will play the way we always do, which is to try to win the game."
Galatasaray earned their spot against Chelsea with a knock-out win over Juventus. While the club is thrilled to advance, manager Roberto Mancini knows it's an uphill battle that begins on Wednesday against the Premier League's No. 1 club.
"Chelsea are one of the best teams in Europe," Mancini said. "They've won the Champions League before and are always in the competition, but we need to fight against them and make use of home advantage."
