Chelsea vs Real Madrid: Form, Recent Games, and News

Chelsea

Chelsea hopes they can turn things around in their favour after going down 2-0 away in the reverse leg of the UEFA Champions League. The Blues are, however, in deep trouble as nothing, including the hiring of new managers, seems to work now. This is one game Chelsea fans will turn up for but noting that they will be without Cucureall who was hauled off with an injury in the first leg as well Ben Chilwell who picked a straight red for last man professional foul, the situation at Stamford Bridge is a bit apprehensive now.

Notable absentees on the Blues side are Broja who is nursing a knee injury while Chukweueka has a knock. Koulibaly  is out with a muscle injury with Chilwell who is suspended with a red card.

Real Madrid

Los Blancos are one foot into the UCL Semifinals after thrashing Chelsea 2-0 at home in the first leg of the quarterfinals. However, Ancelotti's men still have a mission to accomplish on this trip to England. They made minced meat of the Blue who are out of form and look toward back-to-back trips to Stamford Bridge. The last trip was in April 2022, a match Real Madrid won 2-3. Ferland Mendy will miss this trip to Stamford Bridge due to muscle injury.
