On August 5, the draw for the 2024/25 Conference League play-off was held, with Chelsea set to face the loser of the Braga vs Servette tie.
Chelsea had a mediocre season last year, finishing sixth in the Premier League with a record of 18 wins, 9 draws, and 11 losses, accumulating 63 points. They reluctantly secured a spot in the Conference League play-offs, meaning they must compete in a play-off to enter the third-tier European competition.
Braga finished fourth in the Portuguese Primeira Liga last season with 68 points, trailing league champions Sporting CP by a whopping 22 points. Servette finished third in the Swiss Super League last season, just one point behind runners-up Lugano, but a distant 13 points behind Young Boys Bern.
In the comment section of Chelsea’s announcement of the draw, the Blues fans did not give the club any face. The first hot comment read: “On behalf of all Chelsea fans, we don’t need any information about this competition, thanks.”
