Speaking
in an interview with Chelsea website, Lampard said: “It is a tough draw but a
good draw. We knew that when we get through the group stages you are generally
in with some big teams and we have certainly drawn one.”
We
have the past with them, of course, but these will be competitions in themselves
that will be very difficult. We will be set for the contest. Chelsea is
currently in fourth place in the Premier
League table but the Blues
have suffered an alarming dip in form in recent weeks.

west London side has lost four of their last five games in the Premier League
as they prepare for their crunch clash against Tottenham Hotspur away from home
on Sunday afternoon.
