The Blues are in Germany tonight looking to continue their fine Conference League campaign, taking on a team who could not be more different in stature. While Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca is just in his sixth month at the helm, Heidenheim boss Frank Schmidt has been in the role since 2007, a remarkable 17 years.

The team news is in from the Voith-Arena ahead of Chelsea's Conference League clash against 1. FC Heidenheim on Thursday evening.

Heidenheim take on Chelsea on Thursday, Nov. 28, at the Voith-Arena, with kickoff set for an 6:45 p.m. CET start local time in Germany, which is a 5:45 p.m. start in the UK, a 12:45 p.m. ET or 9:45 a.m. PT kickoff in the US and Canada, and an 4:45 a.m. AEDT start in Australia on Friday morning.
