The ‘blue’ team receives Ancelotti’s team with a ticket at stake to the semi-finals of the Champions League
Chelsea and Real Madrid will play a place in the semi-finals of the Champions League at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday. Ancelotti’s team start the tie as favorites since they won 2-0 in the first leg, but they will do so in this second leg as well.
This is because, despite playing at home, the London team continues to stray through poor results. Last weekend they fell again (and they did at home) with Brighton the executioner with a 1-2 result. In total, they have already played six games without celebrating a victory.
For its part, the white entity comes at a good time. He was superior to his European rival in the first leg, beating Cádiz convincingly on his last day of LaLiga, and most recently he has scored great victories such as the 6-0 against Valladolid and most notably the 0-4 against Barcelona at the Camp Nou.
