Chelsea Target Top 4 as They Visit Häcken in Women's Champions League

Chelsea will be looking to maintain their unbeaten start to the UEFA Women's Champions League when they travel to Sweden to face Häcken on Tuesday evening.

The English side head into the Matchday 4 encounter sitting fourth in the 18-team league phase standings with seven points from three matches.

They have recorded two victories and one draw, scoring three goals without conceding.

A win would take Chelsea to 10 points and strengthen their position among the four teams that qualify directly for the quarter-finals.

They are currently level on points with OL Lyonnes and Arsenal, but have a smaller goal difference.

Chelsea's defensive record has been particularly impressive, with no team yet finding a way past them in the competition.

Their latest league-phase outing ended in a 2-0 victory over Roma, providing an opportunity to build further momentum in Sweden.

Häcken, meanwhile, are facing a difficult challenge as they attempt to improve their position.

The Swedish side have collected just one point from their opening three matches and occupy 16th place.

They have suffered two defeats and drawn once, scoring only one goal while conceding five.

Their position leaves them outside the qualification places, making Tuesday's fixture important as they seek to revive their campaign.

Häcken will also be aware that another defeat could make their chances of reaching the knockout stage increasingly difficult.

Chelsea, however, cannot afford to underestimate their hosts, particularly away from home.

The London club will need to reproduce the defensive discipline that has characterised their European campaign so far.
