Chelsea v Manchester City (Sun, 16:00 GMT)
Manuel Pellegrini and City have previously voiced their displeasure at the game being on Sunday, given their continental commitments and the Chilean said that the trip to Kiev takes precedence.
“We always try to play with a strong team in every competition - they are all important but we must prioritise the Champions League," he said. “It’s a big problem - it’s not so big if we could have played on Saturday, on Sunday it’s a major problem.”
