Paul Hughes: To be fair to Chelsea, they've look a lot more comfortable than Arsenal did against BATE, especially in defence.

Chukwuebuka: Someone predicted a 3-0 to Chelsea earlier while others were casting the coach and his decisions, we all know that if we add penetration to our football we'll be on a different level, let's sit back and know that the man at the helm is not a Tyro. Believe.

They sure did say 3-0, and here they are...

Koba Fern: 3-0! I did 13 press ups, now screaming at my telly!

Willian tried to put that free-kick under the wall and on the replay, Olivier Giroud was a bit lucky there. He was jostling with Oscar Lewicki and threw a bit of an elbow...

"Hudson-Odoi, we want you to stay" rings around Stamford Bridge after that goal.

You can't argue with his current strike rate. In the past two starts, he's scored. More ammunition for Chelsea fans to use against Maurizio Sarri?

The more stretched the game gets the more exciting it gets. Ruben Loftus-Cheek now drives over halfway at pace and feeds Willian, who is fouled just outside the area. Ross Barkley would fancy this but has come off. WIllian?

Into the wall.

Koba Fern: Critics say Chelsea have taken the foot off the gas, relaxed. This is Chelsea relaxed, loose having fun - winning.

The Malmo away day songbook has reached Sloop John B.

Callum Hudson-Odoi has been very quiet in the second half as now Mateo Kovacic seems to have picked up a problem. He's limping and holding his thigh - dead leg?

And now Ethan Ampadu is on for Chelsea, he replaces Cesar Azpilicueta. Ampadu will play at right-back.

There's only been goals in one other game since half-time, with Slavia Prague racing clear of Genk, scoring three times after the break to lead 4-1 on the night and on aggregate.

Otherwise it's as you were, with Bayer Leverkusen and Krasnodar the only sides set to go to extra-time.

Here you go Dave - N'Golo Kante and Ross Barkley come off, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Jorginho come on.

Jorginho was booed on by some fans...

Nii: So Sarri ball is N’Golo running half the pitch and giving an assist. Please how about someone holding upmidfield he loses the ball. Who’s going to do that, Jorginho, Kovacic - both are not good enough to do that. I play N’Golo there all day long.

David E: Someone should remind Sarri that he has a cup final against MAN CITY on Sunday. Sub some first team players and give fringe players chance to impress.

Malmo are down to 10! Rasmus Bengtsson was booked in the first half for a lung and he chops doen his man on the edge of the area. Off you pop.

Willian away on the left again, Lasse Nielsen dives in, a desperate challenge and referee Orel Grinfeld says that he won the ball. Not sure!

Chukwuebuka: You all should give Sarri a chance, being a coach is not making Pizza, he's not the first person that is having a tough time implementing his system neither will he be the last, Maurizio Sarri is a top coach, look at what he did at Naples.

Mike Bell: Arsenal win and Giroud scores. Just like the old days. So what price Arsene Wenger in charge at the Bridge by next week? Never say never.

Max Kinsky: You can debate all day about whether or not Kante is in the right position or not, but there's no denying he's Chelsea best attacking-midfielder, possibly in the whole squad let alone on the pitch tonight.

The Malmo fans are now into a five-minute rendition of the chorus of Hey Jude. Superb support. The game is petering out.

Time to give Etan Ampadu and Ruben Loftus-Cheek a run-out? Would rest a few players for the final.
