Qarabag boss Gurban Gurbanov insisted his side are unfazed by facing Chelsea in their Champions League debut on Tuesday night.
Chelsea, the 2012 winners, return to the Champions League after a season's absence from Europe's elite competition and the Group C contest at Stamford Bridge is Qarabag's first fixture in the group stages.
"We're not scared of any of them," Gurbanov said. "They have one of the best coaches in Europe [in Antonio Conte] and they have some of the best players in Europe.
"Even though Chelsea is an icon in the Champions League and have a big chance to win the Champions League this season, the team is ready and we're going to play until the end.
