Chelsea boss Mourinho won't take Champions League progress for granted

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho insists their Champions League tie with Galatasaray is finely balanced.

Galatasaray have never won on English soil, but having lost just once in their last 23 matches across all competitions, Mourinho doesn't envisage there being much to choose between the teams.

"If you look at the result, it's 1-1," he said. "You look at the first game, one team was better in the first half and another was better in the second, so everything is balanced.

"Normally it will be the same kind of match with the result going to the end. I don't think one team will make a result whereby people at half-time know who is going to win."
