Jovic has been tremendous for Frankurt this term
The Eagles are going through a poor patch of form, however, having won just one of their last five games in all competitions.
To add to their worries, striker Sebastian Haller, who has netted 14 Bundesliga goals this season, is injured for the match and Croatian forward Ante Rebic is suspended – dealing a big blow to boss Adi Hutter.
Nonetheless, there remains a feeling around the German club that they can be more than a match for Chelsea, who have looked uninspiring on several occasions this season.
