| MATA’S DIFFICULT RETURN TO VALENCIA... |
Chelsea winger Juan Mata faces what he has called a “very special” and “emotional” match when he returns to Valencia on Wednesday night in the Champions League.
The Spanish international only left the Mestalla last month for £23.5million, having spent four years at Valencia, for whom he scored 46 goals in 174 games.
Mata has already found the net for Chelsea in Group E, helping the London club to a 2-0 home win over Bayer Leverkusen which lifted the Blues to the top of the section.
They will be optimistic of staying there this week, as they have won 2-1 on their two previous trips to the Mestalla, both of which took place in 2007. Also, Valencia’s unbeaten start to the season was ended by a 1-0 loss at Sevilla on Saturday.
