Chelsea will travel to Sweden on Valentines Day

Chelsea have drawn in Malmo the Europa League round of 32.

The first leg will be played on 14 February at the Malmö Stadion, and the return leg will be played at Stamford Bridge on 21 February.

Chelsea waltzed their way into the knockout stages, winning five and drawing one of their matches against BATE Borisov, MOL Vidi, and PAOK.

Maurizio Sarri has used the competition thus far as an opportunity to give run-outs to the club's academy graduates, with Callum Hudson-Odoi starring.

Sarri is now expected to start fielding a fuller-strength side as he chases a first trophy with Chelsea.
