    Interestingly, the son of former Chelsea technical director Michael Emenalo, Landon Emenalo, is in Enzo Maresca's squad for the first time today.

    The likes of Kaiden Wilson, Genesis Antwi, Richard Olise, Harrison Murray-Campbell, Kiano Dyer, Sam Rak-Sakyi, Ato Ampah, Shim Mheuka and Reggie Walsh are also all on the B list for tonight.

    More established youngsters like Josh Acheampong and Tyrique George could start.

    Tonight could be a good one for the Chelsea academy with a 3-0 lead from the first leg away at Legia Warsaw.

  2. Will Spurs salvage terrible season?published at 18:44 British Summer Time 17 April

    Eintracht Frankfurt v Tottenham (20:00 BST)

    Tottenham Hotspur

    It's been a season to forget for Tottenham and one that has caused some of their fanbase to call for changes all over the club.

    Ange Postecoglou's Spurs tenure is seemingly hanging by a thread with his side languishing in 15th in the Premier League - which is equal to their lowest-ever finish in 1994.

    Losing at home to relegation-bound Leicester and Ipswich are perhaps their lowest moments but they may all be forgotten if Spurs can pull off a remarkable win in Germany and reach the last four of the Europa League.

    Man Utd v Lyon (20:00 BST)

    Manchester United

    It's official!

    Manchester United will finish this season with their lowest points total in the Premier League era.

    Last Sunday's crushing 4-1 defeat at Newcastle means they can only reach a maximum of 56 points. Their previous lowest was 58.

    But United remain unbeaten in 11 matches in the Europa League this season.

    After opening with three draws in the competition under Erik ten Hag, they got their first win against PAOK during Ruud van Nistelrooy's interim spell before recording five victories and two draws under Ruben Amorim.

    Plenty of Lyon fans are making their way to Old Trafford for tonight's game.

    It is easily walkable to the stadium from Manchester city centre but it is far more straightforward to use public transport.

    This lot are quite noisy.

    Over in the Conference League, Chelsea have one foot in the semi-finals after establishing a 3-0 first leg lead in Poland over Legia Warsaw.

    Will Enzo Maresca's side finish the job at Stamford Bridge?
