On TV: BT Sport 2 (UK); none (USA); none? At least we got a Denis Zakaria sighting! And not a single Academy youth in sight.

Graham Potter's Chelsea look to extend their fine form in Europe as they face Dinamo Zagreb in hopes of redemption.

Although Dinamo Zagreb’s Champions League dream will come to an end at the conclusion of the game, the Croatian side could still steal a Europa League spot. Ante Cacic’s men would want to replicate their performance from the reverse fixture, a game that saw the end of Chelsea’s previous manager Thomas Tuchel. Since donning the managerial hat at Stamford Bridge, Graham Potter has transformed Chelsea into a formidable outfit.

Chelsea's Champions League group stage campaign ended in victory courtesy of debutant Denis Zakaria.

As the rain and wind intensified it was Chelsea who finished the stronger. Either side of the hour, Ben Chilwell crashed a shot into the side-netting and Mount was denied by a block, after which Potter made a triple substitution. He powerfully placed his shot past Livakovic, and despite the best efforts of Sadegh Moharrami on the line, the ball found its way in. [Kepa](https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/profile/kepa-arrizabalaga) was replaced by [Edouard Mendy](https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/profile/edouard-mendy) in goal. His fifth goal of the season was his first since Potter’s opening night in charge, six weeks and eight appearances ago. Havertz then twice went close to extending our advantage, thwarted by a combination of good defending and goalkeeping. After a muted quarter-hour, the goal sprung us into life, and we began to assert our dominance. [Ben Chilwell](https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/profile/ben-chilwell), who pulled up in stoppage time clutching the back of his thigh. A cross from the right was inadvertently headed back across his own six-yard box by Azpilicueta, leaving Petkovic with the simple task of nodding past Mendy. [Kalidou Koulibaly](https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/profile/kalidou-koulibaly) returned having missed the past three games through injury, and there were also starts for [Cesar Azpilicueta](https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/profile/cesar-azpilicueta), [Jorginho](https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/profile/jorginho) and Aubameyang. Having had to wait so long to play his first game, the Swiss international was understandably thrilled. It finished 2-1 to the Blues at a sodden Stamford Bridge with all the goals coming before half-time.

Chelsea vs Dinamo Zagreb recap: The Blues wrapped up play in UEFA Champions League Group E with a 2-1 comeback victory over the Croatian champions.

We should see a reaction from Chelsea but they will have one eye on the big London derby against current Premier League leaders Arsenal at the weekend. Reece James, Fofana, Kante and Kepa are all out with injury, while Koulibaly is a doubt and Kovacic did not train ahead of the game against his boyhood club. He’s gone with a 3-4-2-1 formation for most of his time in charge so far but he’s been very flexible with hybrid wing backs and switching to a back four during games. They will sit deep and try to stay in the game with 30 minutes to go and then go for it. It will be intriguing to see how Chelsea responds to their hammering at Brighton at the weekend. After joining the club just before the transfer deadline this summer, Denis Zakaria made his long awaited Chelsea debut and marked the occasion with the winning goal in the 30th minute.

After his Chelsea side defeated Dinamo Zagreb 2-1 in the Champions League, Graham Potter reflected on a night of highs and lows, with an impressive debut in ...

'Obviously having the back four behind him probably helped get him a little bit higher, a little bit wider and it was nice for him to score. As I’ve said before, the team needs to function well for the individuals to do well, so I’m really pleased for him to get his goal today. So I think it was a nice goal for him, a nice goal for the team. It was an important goal for us, so I’m happy for him that he contributed to the team performance and also to score. I played as a wing-back and I can tell you Raheem’s never been asked to play as a wing-back. 'Before the game I told him to be himself and I thought he did that well.
