The draw is also a very good omen for the club as the last time they faced a side from Prague they went onto win the competition.Chelsea beat Sparta Prague 2-1 on aggregate in the Round of 32 stage in 2013 and later beat Steaua Bucharest, Rubin Kazan and Basel to triumph in the competition under Rafael Benitez.So if you’re superstitious, Blues fans, there’s still reason to be optimistic this season as a European trophy is headed to west London.
