Chelsea will meet Slavia Prague in the quarter-finals of the Europa League next month.
The Czech club knocked out La Liga side Sevilla on Thursday night following a dramatic 4-3 win after extra time.
Fans on Twitter believe that the Blues got the easiest draw possible:

If we don’t reach the final at least, something has gone severely wrong

Despite the opposition knocking out Sevilla last night this looks a good draw and could`ve been much worse. All down to us now and how we play on both matches.

However, some supporters were warning against complacency:
I live in Prague and watch Slavia quite often and I should warn our fans that it’s not an easy draw, especially with the way Chelsea have been playing lately. Slavia have a very Premier League style approach.

Good pair but no complacency.

If Chelsea do make it through to the semi-finals, Maurizio Sarri’s side will face either Benfica or Eintracht Frankfurt. On paper, the Blues look to be favourites to make the final in Baku.
There is a lot of football to be played between now and May, though. Frankfurt, like Slavia Prague, have also been taking out higher calibre opposition. The Bundesliga side knocked out Italian giants Inter Milan on Thursday.
Sarri also got his wish about not facing former club Napoli before the final. The Partenopei are on the opposite side of the draw and will be playing Arsenal in the quarter-finals.
