CFR CLUJ V CHELSEA PREVIEW
When the Champions League Draw was made and CFR Cluj were placed in Chelsea's group, everyone must have said 'Who?'
But they are the Romanian champions and Chelsea will be nervous about flying out into the unknown. Especially as CFR Cluj are based in Transylvania. Despite that Paddy Power don't believe there will be enough scary moments to frighten Chelsea and make the Blues 4/9 to take three points.
7/1 CFR Cluj win

It is the Romanian team's first time in the Champions League so it's hard to base your betting on their previous form.
The managers of the other teams in the competition thought of CFR Cluj as something of an unknown entity. However they will all have sat up and rushed to view the DVDs of the match against Roma on Matchday One. The Romanian side went to the Stadio Olympico and beat Roma 2-1. If Chelsea take this game for granted they'll be in for a shocker.
Chelsea beat Bordeaux 4-0 in their opening day fixture and are undefeated in all competitions since then. Their current form and experience in this competition means that Chelsea are going to be many people's favourites for this, but can they repeat another 4-0 feat? 16/1 says it could happen again this Wednesday.

Florent Malouda has enjoyed a renaissance under Scolari and is looking like the player Chelsea fans knew from Lyon. With Joe Cole's injury preventing him from travelling with the squad, Malouda looks certain to start on Wednesday. With goals already to his name this season he's never afraid of shooting on sight. He's 9/1 which is a fantastic price for him to score the first goal.
