Chelsea to face Zilina

Chelsea will meet MSK Zilina in the third qualifying round of the Champions League after the Slovakian champions beat Israeli side Hapoel Tel-Aviv 2-1 on aggregate. Zilina travelled to Hungary with a slender 1-0 lead behind them from last week's first-leg, but netted an early away goal to send the Israeli champions crashing out of the tournament.

Zilina's win means Chelsea travel to Slovakia for the first leg on August 13 and then host the return at Stamford Bridge on August 26.
