  1. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 21:16 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2014

    Chelsea promised teenager Ruben Loftus-Cheek a debut but if he is true to his work, it's just going to be a cameo.

    Fellow midfielder Ramires comes on for Andre Schurrle, who was brilliant in the first half but hasn't done much after the break.

    Chelsea striker Diego Costa is furious as his shirt is pulled as he chases through on goal but it is not given and keeper Rui Patricio boots the ball out for a throw-in.

    That is a man you don't want to anger.

  3. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 21:12 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2014

    Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho makes his first change as Loic Remy comes on for Mohamed Salah, who has done OK but not enough to be a likely starter on Saturday against Hull.

  4. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 21:10 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2014

    Do Sporting Lisbon look like they are going to score two goals? No.

    And so Marco Silva makes his final change as Andre Martins comes on for fellow midfielder Joao Mario.

  6. Over in Sloveniapublished at 21:05 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2014

    This changes everything. Schalke now lead 1-0 away to Maribor with Max Meyer scoring. That would take Roberto Di Matteo's side through and knock Sporting Lisbon out. Unless the Portuguese side score twice in the final 27 minutes at Stamford Bridge.

    Sporting striker Islam Slimani beats Felipe Luis to a high cross but his header is well saved down low by Petr Cech.

  9. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 21:02 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2014

    Sporting Lisbon make a double change, Carlos Mane and Fredy Montero come on for Diego Capel and William Carvalho.

  10. YELLOW CARDpublished at 21:01 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2014

    Sporting Lisbon's highly rated playmaker William Carvalho, who hasn't done much tonight, is booked for fouling Cesc Fabregas. He'll miss their next Champions League game.

    This is not a drill. I repeat this is not a drill.

    John Mikel Obi has scored - he turns home a corner from the closest of ranges. He was maybe six inches out, perhaps less.

  12. Postpublished at 20:57 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2014

    Chelsea are pushing for a third goal, they are probably surprised to be back in a match again - they had looked in total control.

    Sporting need another goal to guarantee their place in the last 16. Although at the moment they are through no matter what as Schalke are being held by Maribor.

  13. Postpublished at 20:55 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2014

    Chelsea are the joint top scorers in this year's tournament along with Real Madrid, with 16 so far. There are other teams in contention to match or better than tonight.

    Mohamed Salah almost restores Chelsea's two-goal lead. Andre Schurrle breaks but his Egyptian team-mate gets the shot away, his down-low effort from 20 yards being tipped around the corner by Rui Patricio.

    Sporting Lisbon back in this game now. Andre Carrillo does well down the right to get a cross in and Andre Schurrle heads the ball out to Jonathan Silva, who is lurking at the edge of the box to fire home.

    Game on.

  16. Postpublished at 20:49 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2014

    Chelsea have a free-kick, after Cesc Fabregas is fouled. Andre Schurrle's effort from about 20 yards goes just wide - his fourth shot of the night.

  17. Postpublished at 20:48 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2014

    Chelsea break with Mohamed Salah finding Diego Costa but the striker can't do much with it. He hasn't looked as sharp as he has in other games this season, perhaps.

  18. KICK-OFFpublished at 20:46 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2014

    Chelsea get the second half going. No changes for either side at the break.

    Remember, the Blues are expected to bring on 18-year-old Ruben Loftus-Cheek for a debut at some stage.
