CHELSEA host Malmo after an underwhelming start to what appeared a straightforward Champions League group.
The Blues were pushed all the way by Zenit in their opening game at Stamford Bridge before Romelu Lukaku popped up with a second half winner.
And they were then beaten 1-0 by Juventus in a match in Turin that was far more comfortable for the hosts than the scoreline suggested.
Visitors Malmo have yet to impress in this year's tournament, as they were thumped 3-0 at home by Juventus and 4-0 in St Petersburg by Zenit.
