It must be a good omen! Last year, FC Barcelona won the Champions League. Last season on their way to the Final in Paris, which FC Barcelona finally won 2-1 against Arsenal, Barca played Werder Bremen in the Group stages and Chelsea in the second round. It is the third consecutive year that Barca has to play José Mourinho´s Chelsea FC, but both times it was in the sond round. Without doubt, Chelsea can be considered as the main rival in this Group A and the match between the two rivals can be considered as the most interesting clash during the group stage of the UEFA Champions League competition.
