Chelsea got their UEFA Conference League campaign off to a winning start with a 2-0 victory over Servette in their first-leg tie at Stamford Bridge. The Blues dominated the match from start to finish, creating numerous chances and eventually breaking the deadlock through Christopher Nkunku in the 59th minute. Noni Madueke added a second goal in the 76th minute, sealing the win for Chelsea.

The match started brightly for Chelsea, with Mykhailo Mudryk having an early chance to open the scoring. However, the Ukrainian forward was unable to make the most of his opportunity, and his performance throughout the match was disappointing.

Chelsea continued to press for an opening goal, and they were eventually rewarded when Nkunku converted a penalty in the 59th minute. The goal gave Chelsea the lead and boosted their confidence.

Just 17 minutes later, Chelsea doubled their advantage through Madueke. The young winger was played through by Enzo Fernandez, who had come on as a substitute earlier in the half. Madueke made no mistake, finishing calmly past the Servette goalkeeper.

The win puts Chelsea in a strong position to progress to the next round of the UEFA Conference League. However, they will need to be wary of a potential backlash from Servette in the second leg.
