Chelsea are also winless in their two matches at home in this tournament having recorded a defeat and a draw as the hosts.
"We are disappointed with the result, the boys gave everything. Attacked quite well, but missed a bit in the final bit in the first half. Scored a good goal. Overall, disappointed, it wasn’t quite to be today," Chelsea manager Graham Potter said after their clash with Salzburg.
"A little moment for their goal, apart from that we responded well. It is what it is, we have to dust ourselves down. We will get better. It’s always irritating when you concede. Overall, the defensive performance was quite good. The little details we have to improve.
"First game, it’s not been easy for the boys, they’ve responded well to us over the last few days. It’s not the result we wanted, it’s a point we have to take it. We will get better."

As a result, the Italian giants are undefeated in their last two matches in this competition having recorded a draw and a victory.
Milan are also undefeated in their last two away matches on the road in this tournament having registered a win and a draw as the away side.
The last meeting between Chelsea and Milan in the Champions League was on 26 October 1999.
