LONDON (Reuters) - Chelsea boss Graham Potter has urged fans to turn up the volume at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday as his side look to erase a 1-0 deficit in their Champions League last-16 tie against in-form Borussia Dortmund.
The Germans have won their last 10 games in all competitions, including eight in the Bundesliga where they are second on goal difference behind Bayern Munich.
"Fans are always entitled to air their views and they've been suffering like the rest of us in terms of the results we've had. The reception and support we had was fantastic," Potter told reporters on Monday ahead of the second leg. Potter said Chelsea's long-awaited victory, which came against Leeds United on Saturday to snap their winless run, had put a smile on the players' faces ahead of the Dortmund game.
