Chelsea will be looking to keep its hopes of its marathon season ending with a trophy as Rafael Benitez's men host FC Basel in their Europa League semifinal second-leg clash at Stamford Bridge on Thursday.

The English Premier League outfit leads 2-1 from last week's semifinal, first-leg in Switzerland and needs only to avoid defeat in west London to be assured of a place in the May 15 final in Amsterdam.

But the games are coming thick and fast for the Pensioners, who must be running on fumes having already played an incredible 63 times this season.
