'Chelsea will fear Frankfurt... they have everything to lose!' - Fjortoft backs Germans to cause shock

The former Eagles forward thinks his old club will cause plenty of problems for the Blues thanks to their powerful frontline and attacking style

Former Eintracht Frankfurt forward Jan Age Fjortoft believes that Chelsea "have everything to lose" in Thursday's Europa League clash with the Germans, claiming the Blues defence will be very busy against one of Europe's most potent attacks.

Frankfurt overturned a 4-2 first-leg deficit against Benfica in the quarter-finals to book their place in the semi-finals, while Chelsea recorded a 5-3 aggregate win against Slavia Prague in the last eight.
