Chelsea news: The Blues enter a run that could be the last for Graham Potter, the start of something bigger or something in the middle.
There aren't many ways that football is being kind to Graham Potter but every cloud needs a silver lining right now. The manager is under immense pressure to turn the ship around at Stamford Bridge and to fix a run of no wins in six matches.
According to William Hill Potter is 1/14 to be in charge for that game, making it a near certainty. The following fixtures are less secure though. Dortmund, as mentioned, may well be the final straw should the Blues not manage to progress despite their 1-0 deficit from the away leg.
He is just 2/7 to be in the dugout for that game with spokesperson Lee Phelps explaining the situation, saying: “Graham Potter will be hoping Chelsea’s fortunes can flip as his odds to be in charge on the final day of the season continue to lengthen.
After that it is back to bottom half sides with a trip to Leicester, a team they managed to scrape by with ten men earlier this season in a 2-1 win. That was Thomas Tuchel's last game in charge in the league. The Foxes have been on a mixed run and once more appear, on paper, to give Chelsea some hope of picking up some points.
That game is then followed by a home fixture against Everton. Chelsea also beat Everton in the reverse fixture but will face a determined Sean Dyche side aiming to climb out of the bottom three. This is once more followed up by yet another home clash, with Unai Emery's Aston Villa coming to Stamford Bridge.
