Here are the official line-ups for the match between Chelsea and Real Madrid.
Before the return match, Chelsea appears to be in a precarious position against Real Madrid.
On Tuesday evening, Chelsea faces a daunting task of having to make up a two-goal deficit in their quarter-final second leg against Real Madrid. However, given their recent performances, this mission appears to be almost impossible. In their last Premier League match, Chelsea suffered another home defeat, this time against Brighton (2-1), and they currently sit in eleventh place in their league. Despite the changes in coaching, Chelsea seems to be struggling, and even though Frank Lampard did make some changes in their last match, the issues within the team run much deeper. Furthermore, their key defender Kalidou Koulibaly will miss the match due to injury, and Ben Chilwell, who was sent off in the first leg at the Bernabéu, will also be unavailable.
There is still an ounce of hope at the dawn of the second clash against the people of Madrid. Before sinking and finishing at ten in the first leg, the Londoners had worried Thibaut Courtois on several occasions. They had lacked success for the meeting to take another turn.
IN MADRID ALL THE LIGHTS ARE GREEN TO QUALIFY
The story is completely opposite among the Spanish. They also made a big rotation this weekend in Cadiz, which did not prevent them from leaving with the three points. If Tchouaméni was a starter, he should not start in the Champions League on Tuesday evening. Ancelotti’s idea seemed clear: to rest the executives who beat Chelsea. Compared to their advantage acquired in the first leg, as well as their past in the competition, it is not clear what could worry the Merengue. Be careful though because there is ultimately only a two-goal lead. Kepa repelled several attacks from Madrid in the first round, and they failed to take full advantage of Chilwell’s exclusion. It will not be necessary to come the flower with the gun.
CHELSEA – REAL MADRID: JOÃO FELIX, THE PLAYER TO FOLLOW
From his past as an Atlético player, the Portuguese knows his opponent very well. However, in seven clashes against Real Madrid, João Félix has still not scored a single goal against the last winner of the Champions League. And it is not necessary to have tried. In the first leg, the Chelsea striker got a few situations that could have turned into a goal with a more applied finish. Decisive on only two goals in fourteen matches, the one who is still under contract with the Colchoneros has a lot to prove on this return leg.
