35'
Chelsea set Hudson-Odoi free on the left, but his teasing cross is too close Onana. The youngster has looked very dangerous, but his end product has been lacking so far.
33'
32'
Lampard will be delighted with this first half an hour. Ajax's rhythm has been disrupted and the Blues have had the better attacking situations over the past 10 minutes or so.
30'
Chelsea win the ball high in the Ajax half. Willian feeds Hudson-Odoi, but he can't wriggle past his man to get a shot away. Frustration for the Abraham who was charging into the middle.
28'
Hudson-Odoi with another effort! On this occasion he seizes upon a miscued headed clearance but drags his first-time strike wide of the near upright.
26'
Ajax at home v English opponents: Won 1, D1, L4.
25'
Hudson-Odoi charges into the left side of the Ajax area, but drills a rising shot well wide of the near post.
23'
Jody Morris is booked on the Chelsea bench. He frowns in irritation.

19'
More super defending from Tomori as he blocks a driven, low cross before recovering to hack it away from the danger zone.
18'
CHELSEA v DUTCH OPPOSITION: The Blues have won two and drawn two of their four meetings with sides from Holland.

14'
Close! Mount surges in from the left and rifles a low shot towards the near-post bottom corner, but Onana is down well to push it away.
13'
It's been a good watch so far. Both sides looking to attack at every opportunity.
11'
Kepa's error allows Ziyech to jink at the Blues defence on the right of the box. It's a dangerous situation for the away side, but Tomori sticks to his guns and manages to tidy up with some mature defending.
10'
Van de Beek meets a clever, driven corner with a wonderful volley that is importantly blocked to safety by Zouma.
8'
Ajax playing with typical Ajax-like verve and swagger. Joël Veltman steps forward from deep and blasts a 30-yarder just past Kepa's left-hand post.
6'
STAT: Chelsea have won six of their eight unbeaten European matches since losing 3-0 to Barcelona in March 2018. It is their longest ever run without defeat in Europe.
5'
4'
Ajax respond with a slick counter. Donny van de Beek sees a shot from 12 yards hit Tomori. The hosts want a penalty for hand ball, but the referee brings it back for an offside in the build up.
