Having wrapped up the Premier League in early May, Chelsea were able to enjoy their final three games of the season secure in the fact that they did not matter.

While they were surprisingly beaten 3-0 by West Brom, they put on decent performances in drawing with Liverpool and beating Sunderland 3-1 on the final day.

The three goals against the Black Cats came courtesy of front-line strikers Diego Costa and Loic Remy—two for the Frenchman—and both will take to the pitch against Sydney, according to Mourinho, via Goal.com's John Greco:

"

I can give already to the coach Arnold [my team]. The front three I will play will be [Loic] Remy, Diego Costa and [Eden] Hazard. ...

We want a very good match. We feel always responsibility. You cannot lose, you cannot just play for fun, you have to go for a result. We are still celebrating [the league title], yes; we are already thinking about next season, yes; but Tuesday is our last game of the season as a club. We want to compete, we want to try and give a good show.

"

There is clearly a huge appetite for the game in Australia's most famous city, with thousands of fans having turned up to watch the Premier League outfit train ahead of Tuesday's clash, according to ANZ Stadium:

The Sky Blues hosted Tottenham on Saturday and were defeated 1-0 by a Harry Kane strike. Sydney were largely dominated on the night and will need to take their chances against Chelsea if they are to give them a decent game.

Striker and skipper Alex Brosque spurned the hosts' best chance against Spurs, and the finishing must improve overall if Sydney are to get on the scoresheet against the Blues.

The Australian outfit undoubtedly face a tough task but have themselves had a decent season, making the A-League final before losing to Melbourne Victory.

Forward Shane Smeltz showed great respect to Chelsea in the pre-match press conference, via Sydney FC:

It is the Blues' first trip to Australia in 41 years, but there must be no standing on ceremony from the Sydney side if they are to put up a fight against their auspicious visitors. They must take the game to Chelsea and perhaps hope to snatch an early goal which they can then defend.

In all likelihood, Chelsea will come out victorious in their final game until July 23; especially if, as promised, Mourinho puts out his strongest team.

But the hosts will be motivated to put on a decent show for what will be a huge and expectant crowd, so an upset is not completely out of the question.
