Lionel Messi has never scored against Chelsea... so how does the Barcelona star fare against Europe's best?

He's only three goals away from joining the Champions League 100 club, but Lionel Messi will have to do something he's never done before to get there in the next two games - score against Chelsea.

In eight meetings between 2006 and 2012, Messi failed to find the back of the net in 655 minutes on the pitch against the Blues.

The closest he came - their last clash in the 2012 semi-final - was striking the bar from the penalty spot, a moment that ended up costing Barca a place in the final.
