Chelsea to face Shamrock Rovers, while Vitória SC lock horns with Fiorentina in UEFA Conference League Matchday 6

Chelsea host Shamrock Rovers with hopes of securing top spot, while Vitória SC and Fiorentina carry top-eight ambitions into their Matchday 6 meeting as the inaugural UEFA Conference League league phase comes to an end on Thursday, according to the official website of UEFA.

After a Marc Guiu-inspired win in Almaty, Chelsea are the only side to confirm their place in the round of 16, carrying the last remaining 100% record into their final league phase contest – a home meeting with Shamrock Rovers.

Unbeaten Shamrock Rovers travel to west London after their third win of the campaign – a 3-0 triumph against Borac at Tallaght Stadium – propelled them to sixth in the league phase table.

Shamrock Rovers are the first Irish club to reach the knockout stages of a UEFA competition.

Second meets third as Vitória SC take on Fiorentina in Guimaraes with both sides eyeing a top-eight finish after emphatic Matchday 5 wins.

Fresh from a 7-0 win over LASK, the club's biggest European victory, Fiorentina are in similarly fearsome form.

Fiorentina have lost just three of their 14 encounters with Portuguese sides in UEFA competitions (W7 D4), their last defeat against Benfica in 1997.

Thursday's Conference League fixtures are as follows:

Heidenheim vs St. Gallen

APOEL vs Astana

Cercle Brugge vs İstanbul Başakşehir

Chelsea vs Shamrock Rovers

Djurgården vs Legia Warszawa

Lugano vs Pafos

Borac vs Omonoia
