In 2021 the sides came face to face in the final with Barça winning 4-0. In 2023 they met in the semi finals with Barça winning 2-1 on aggregate and last season the blaugranes needed a 2-0 win in London to cancel out the 1-0 defeat in Barcelona in the first leg as they met in the last four once again. Every time Barça have beaten Chelsea, they have gone on to win the trophy. 

Demanding tie 

Chelsea are currently top of the league in England with an 8 point lead over Arsenal as they chase a sixth title in six seasons. Amongst the elite of European Football in recent seasons, it will be a demanding tie over two legs for Pere Romeu's team.
