Zlatan The Man
With 40 goals from 42 appearances in 2013-14, Ibrahimovic could make it a bad week for Mourinho.
In a match where Chelsea will surely defend for their lives, Zlatan Ibrahimovic could well prove the difference.
The Swedish superstar is a best price 4/1 to break the deadlock with Paddy Power who will give you your money back on losing bets if Eden Hazard finds the net at anytime. Given that he’s Chelsea’s top scorer, that’s some pretty decent insurance.
Ibrahimovic is enjoying what is arguably his best season of a stellar career. The 32-year-old has set French football alight with 25 goals in Ligue 1, but it’s in European competition where he has particularly excelled.
The former Barcelona and Inter man has fired 10 goals in seven Champions League appearances for Laurent Blanc’s boys. He scored two in Leverkusen in the previous round and a remarkable four against Anderlecht in the group stages.
A Mourinho team will be a tougher nut to crack but one of the most gifted strikers in world football can still deliver.
