The Blues comprehensively defeated Dynamo Kiev over two legs in the round of 16, with the aggregate scoreline finishing 8-0 to Maurizio Sarri’s men.
Slavia Prague, meanwhile, secured their place in the final eight rather narrowly. They shocked Sevilla with a 6-5 win on aggregate after their second-leg fixture went deep into extra-time.
Chelsea will be happy with this draw, having avoided several prestigious clubs, and they will take encouragement from their previous success against Czech opposition.
Take a look back at the Blues’ only six encounters against teams from the Czech Republic in their history!
