The two teams face off for the sixth time in the last three years
Chelsea and Real Madrid face off against each other tomorrow at the Bridge for the second leg of the Uefa Champions League quarter final. There is lots to look forward to when two big clubs with great history face off against one another. Real Madrid currently have a 2-0 advantage on aggregate but when it comes to the Champions League nothing is impossible.
Chelsea have a massive task to try and save their season
The Blues face a big task of shocking Real Madrid in the second leg at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea have been in poor form and have lost all their games since Frank Lampard took over. They are a number of big players that could miss out on this clash for Chelsea. Koulibaly has been ruled out for several weeks whilst Chillwell is serving a suspension for a foul on Rodrygo. Chillwell’s suspension means that a struggling Marc Cucurella will have to fill in his spots. The likes of Havertz, Loftus Cheek and Chukwuemeka are also doubts. Mendy is also still recovering from a shoulder problem meaning Kepa will be between the sticks again. Chelsea will have to pull the rabbit out of the hat if they are to knock out Real Madrid who have been in great form.
Real Madrid expected to advance to the semis
Real Madrid will be looking to get the job done at Stamford Bridge. Los Merengue have one foot already in what would be their third straight semifinal. They already have a comfortable 2-0 lead and will do everything to get a win at Stamford Bridge as well. Real Madrid do have a few doubts in Vinicius Jr, Toni Kroos and Ferland Mendy all missed out in Los Blancos’s 2-0 win over Cadiz over the weekend. They will most likely face Manchester City in the semifinals who have a good advantage over Bayern Munich in the quarterfinals.
