With Champions League qualification on the line for Chelsea, a win this time around would help Enzo Maresca\u2019s side gain a four-point advantage over fifth-placed Manchester City.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cI think we need to stick to our plan. We have the talent, we are in a good moment with confidence and for us and the fans it\u2019s a special game. We will try to do everything to try and win these three points and have another win in the bag,\u201d said Cucurella to Chelsea\u2019s media team.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Thursday night\u2019s victory over Copenhagen means the Blues have recorded four successive wins in all competitions, and that has led to renewed confidence within the squad. Cucurella has stressed that although every derby carries added significance, the mindset must remain consistent.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\"The most important thing is to try and take each game as the most important game because it doesn\u2019t matter which team or game you\u2019re playing, you are playing for three points. It\u2019s about staying focused and going into the next game and seeing where we finish this season.\"<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Having found the net five times in total across all competitions this term, the Spain international has relished becoming an important source of goals. And Cucurella is enjoying his new-found goalscoring touch and hopes to continue making an impact at the other end of the pitch.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\"The most important thing is to try and take each game as the most important game because it doesn\u2019t matter which team or game you\u2019re playing, you are playing for three points.
