Chelsea's confidence has grown after an impressive win over Leeds United at the weekend.

The Blues are still in midtable in the Premier League, but managed to correct a run of defeats under boss Graham Potter.

Midfielder Denis Zakaria is already looking forward to their Champions League tie against Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday, as they look to overturn a first leg deficit and progress to the quarter finals.

“After a streak as we have had you are just happy to win," Zakaria stated post-game.

“It has been hard for the manager and the players also. It wasn't easy to lose games. We are Chelsea. We have to win.

“It is not easy when you lose too often but in the end, we did well and are happy with our three points."

About the need to build momentum, the Swiss international added: “We are not getting too happy because we have a big game and a big week that we need to be ready for.

“It will for sure give us confidence in the future. We will work better after the win [against Leeds]. We can build after this game.

“We are happy for the win and it will help us ahead of Dortmund and it will lift the confidence of the players."
