In the 2024–2025 UEFA Conference League, Chelsea were one of only two clubs to remain unbeaten throughout the league phase. The London club finished top of their group with a flawless record, winning all six matches. Their exceptional run included a commanding 5-1 victory over Shamrock Rovers, showcasing their dominance in the competition.
Chelsea's consistent performances secured their place at the top of the standings and directly qualified them for the round of 16, bypassing the play-off round. They will now face one of four potential opponents—FC Heidenheim, KAA Gent, Molde, or Shamrock Rovers—in the next stage. The draw for the round of 16 is scheduled for February 21, with matches to be played in March.
This achievement not only highlights Chelsea's strength in the competition but also their preparation for the knockout stages, where they will be aiming to continue their unbeaten run and secure the title. The team’s next challenge will be determining which club from the group stage runners-up they will face in the play-off round if needed.
Vitória SC, the other unbeaten club, will enter the play-off round to compete against teams that finished third in other groups. Their consistent performances throughout the league phase also set them up for a potential run in the tournament.
