28'
Will that Willian attempt be the catalyst for Chelsea to step it up a gear? They've yet to really get going here.
26'
LATEST: Arsenal 2-0 Napoli.
25'
OFF THE BAR! Willian drops a shoulder and jinks in from the left before curving a brilliant right-foot effort that pings back off the crossbar. Unlucky.
23'
In a word, no. Chelsea repel the first cross at the near post with the follow-up delivery landing safely in the hands of Kepa.
22'
Another free kick for Slavia on the left flank. Can they find another testing delivery.
20'
Sevcik lets rip with a blockbuster from distance but Kepa is right behind it and gathers at the second attempt.
18'
Indeed.
17'
More on that Arsenal goal...
16'
LATEST: Arsenal 1-0 Napoli.
15'
Not much to shout about so far on the pitch, but there's a buoyant mood in the stands despite the empty sections in the ground.
12'
10'
DID YOU KNOW? Chelsea have won more games (nine) and have a better goal difference (+21) than any other team in the competition this term.
9'
7'
Barkley has Chelsea's first shot of the night but arcs his 30-yard effort well over the bar.
6'
The hosts have had most of the ball early doors. Chelsea look to change that as Willian spins into space in the middle of the park, but his ball in-behind for Pedro down the right is over-hit and the Spaniard forlornly gives up the chase.
4'
3'
Chelsea are fortunate to enjoy an early let off as a brilliant left-wing free kick is nodded wide on the stretch by Slavia captain Simon Deli.
2'
DID YOU KNOW? This is Chelsea's 10th European quarter-final since 2003-04. The Blues have progressed from nine of those ties. Man United are the only side to knock them out in the 2010-11 CL.
1st Half
1'
KICK OFF! Chelsea get us underway.

STAT: Olivier Giroud is the leading scorer in this competition this term with nine goals to his name. The last player to reach double figures in a EL campaign was Athletic Bilbao's Aritz Aduriz in 2015-16.
