"Chelsea is not a shot to nothing. It's a tough ask, you are going there and might have less of the ball. But teams like Burnley have done well,” Swansea boss Paul Clement said.
"We believe we can go anywhere and get a result but we have to be absolutely focused. We have to be at our best defensively and clinical if we get a chance.
"We have to get tactics right but we are not going there just to defend. We want to create chances and try and get all three points.
“It is a tough ask but we have been away and pushed top teams hard."
