For those who traveled, this was an excellent opportunity to pad the stat sheet, and Guiu did just that, tripling his goals total for the season with one most excellently taken goal, and another that may have been an own goal but we’ll take it just the same (especially as it was the result of good center forward play).

Chelsea will play in below freezing conditions when they face FC Astana at the Almaty Ortalyk Stadion on Thursday.

Chelsea are currently top of the Conference League table with four wins from four and have taken a bunch of youngsters with them for this trip. Astana have a very strong domestic record. They finished the league season in second place last month ending the campaign just one point behind eventual winners Kairat.
