Spartak Moscow host MSK Zilina in the early kick-off in Chelsea's Champions League group, from 5.30pm UK time.

Alex to take then, curling it in from the right... he goes for the shot and a flying Dubravka tips it over!

Comedy defending by Zilina on the right wing allows Welliton in, he is then hacked down by Majtan. What on earth is he going at left back? Free kick.

Majtan chases a ball over the top but Dikan reads it and runs out to claim.

All manner of fun in the Zilina box! McGeady with a superb ball in, Welliton misses the bicycle kick but Alex hammers it on goal, batted away by Dubravka, the loose ball back to McGeady who again spins in a teasing cross but the header from Ari I think is blocked by Piacek. Yells for a handball. Bodies everywhere.

Lots of empty seats at Luzhniki Stadium. I hazard it's pretty old out.

Ari plays it inside to Welliton, he lays it back off to ARI WITH THE BULLET DRIVE but it flashes wide! Vicious effort from the Brazilian.

A bit scrappy again now after that spell of pressure for the hosts. They're looking to get it to McGeady as often as they can. He has hit the ground running at Spartak, let's see how he holds up...

Alex takes the corner short to McGeady but the Brazilian cannot cross and settles for a throw.

BRILLIANT FROM MCGEADY! Alex found him wide right, he made mincemeat of Mraz and flicked a surprise shot in that spooned over the bar off a defender. Corner.

After some build-up in Spartak preparing a wall the visitors blast the free-kick miles over, Jez in the end opting for an ill-advised shot.

Free-kick to Zilina around 35 yards out which Jez fancies...

McGeady races through now but Dubravka reads the danger and flies out to claim before he can reach it in the box.

Welliton is played in on the left, men go with him and the angle is tight but he works it on to the outside of his right and clips it across the keeper, who gets a hand on it and tips it away! Should have used his left, drilled it low.

Kombarov heads wide, a few yards wide in the end as the cross from Sheshukov was too high for him.

Welliton has the ball on the left and uses Alex, he goes back to Sheshukov, now McGeady wide right finds Ari, back to the Irishman but he's tackled. Throw.

Guldan gets forward on the counter and fancies a shot from range and his right-foot drive outswings just wide with Dikan flailing!

Poor ball from Makeev, headed straight back to him. Wide to McGeady now but the move loses impetus and Zilina counter...

Great play by the hosts sees Kombarov chopped down by Guldan after he spun off the defender. Booking, free-kick some 35 yards out.

Long ball into the Zilina boss almost falls for Kombarov, behind him though and Alex miscontrols so the visitors can clear. Almost opened up for the Russians there.

Spartak opt to retain possession from that free-kick, going all the way back and knocking it around patiently.

Kombarov with an interception and he releases Ari, who is brought down by Vitor.
