Chelsea vs Pafos Prediction (21.01.2026)

Paphos definitely brought color to their participation in this year's Champions League and they already have six points, leaving them just one away from a spot in the top 24. However, the upcoming visit to London seems like a completely different challenge, where their chances to compete will be severely limited.

Currently, Chelsea is in 13th place in the standings and will certainly be looking for a better starting position before their last match against Napoli. The victory over Brentford in the league came at just the right moment, as it ended a streak of five consecutive winless matches in the Premier League and restored the necessary dose of confidence in the team.

Paphos have scored only four goals in their six matches in the tournament so far, which clearly indicates their difficulties in attack. Against an organized and motivated home team, their task seems too complicated. Given Chelsea's higher class, I expect them to manage to scrape out a victory, but with a minimal score.
