Chelsea take on London rivals Arsenal in the Europa League final in Baku this evening and it will be live on talkSPORT.
The Premier League giants have been firm favourites to meet in the showpiece match throughout the knock-out phase.
Chelsea needed penalties to see off Eintracht Frankfurt in the semi-finals with Eden Hazard netting the decisive spot kick to send them through.
Arsenal, meanwhile, put Valencia to the sword, claiming a 7-3 win on aggregate with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scoring four goals in the tie.
The Gunners have never won Europe’s secondary competition. Their best finish in the tournament was a final defeat to Galatasaray in 2000.

Chelsea, on the other hand, claimed the trophy in 2013, beating Benfica 2-1 thanks to Branislav Ivanovic’s 93rd-minute winner.

Chelsea vs Arsenal: Team news
Arsenal boss Emery is missing Aaron Ramsey and Hector Bellerin through injury and Henrikh Mkhitaryan due to security concerns but otherwise has a fully fit squad to choose form.
Danny Welbeck could feature from the bench having recovered from a broken ankle suffered in November.
N’Golo Kante faces a late fitness test to determine whether he is fit to start for Chelsea, while Maurizio Sarri is definitely without Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Callum Hudson-Odoi and Antonio Rudiger.
Chelsea vs Arsenal: What the managers say
Maurizio Sarri (Chelsea)
“Usually against Arsenal, it’s an open match. They have two very dangerous strikers: Lacazette and Aubameyang. They are very dangerous as a team in the offensive phase. They are aggressive and able to press well in the opposition half, so it’s not easy to play against them.
“We didn’t want to play this final for the Champions League. We wanted the Champions League through the Premier League, and then we wanted to win a trophy. The final is very important for us, and our feeling is we deserve to win a trophy.”
Unai Emery (Arsenal)
“The first idea thing I had to transmit to the players this season is that we go for every competition. When we started playing in the first Europa League matches, some players preferred to play Premier League. OK, but I am going to decide when you are going to rest or not.
“I don’t want you to think you might not play in the early rounds and yet, when we arrive at the semi-final or the final, you say to me: “I am here to play.” All season, the approach to this competition has been a big focus, a big ambition to do something important. To feel this competition like we want it.”
