Chelsea wary of Maribor threat

Chelsea may be five points clear at the top of the Premier League and unbeaten in top-flight domestic action this season but it is determined not to be caught off guard when it faces Maribor in the Champions League at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday.

Jose Mourin-ho has already seen his side slip up at home in Group G with Klaas Jan Huntelaar punishing the Blues for failing to make more of a number of chances by scoring Schalke's equalizer in the 1-1 draw in the opening game of their latest European campaign.

Chelsea recovered from that disappointment with victory over Sporting in Lisbon.
