Real Madrid vs Chelsea: The Spanish team faces the Spanish team this Wednesday, April 6 for the first leg of the quarterfinals Champions League final at Stamford Bridge Stadium in London. Here are all the details.
Real Madrid arrives in the match with Chelsea after a return to the good feelings thanks to the 2-1 win against Celta de Vigo for the spanish LaLiga. In this way, he recovered from the 4-0 rout suffered against his classic rival Barcelona in Santiago Bernabeu himself. The white team is the leader of the standings with 69 points and maintains a difference of 12 points compared to the culé team that is second with the same score as Atlético Madrid and Sevilla.
Chelsea lost 4-1 to Brentford in their last Premier League match and left behind the winning streak of six straight wins. The 'Blues' rank third in the English tournament table with 59 points, but far from the title fight with a difference of 14 points with Manchester City's first place.
Real Madrid moved to the Champions League quarterfinals after coming back the series in the round of 16 against PSG with a 1-0 defeat in Paris and a 3-1 win in Spain with a brilliant performance by Karim Benzema who made a hat-trick.
Chelsea qualified for the Champions League knockout stages from second place in Group H. Then managed to beat France's Lille with two wins at home and away in the Champions League round of 16.
Real Madrid and Chelsea will meet for the second consecutive year in the Champions League afterwards. In the quarter-finals of the UEFA tournament they will play their first four matches in the history of the competition. In the last edition, the English team beat the Spanish team in the semifinals.
Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti has his regular players in the starting team fit for the first of two decisive matches in the Champions League.

The white square presents the known casualties of Luka Jovic, Isco Alarcón, Miguel Gutiérrez and Eden Hazard.
Chelsea strategist Thomas Tuchel could formulate two variants of his main eleven by deciding on Mateo Kovacic or Masos Mount in the midfield and confirming the companion of Kai Haverts, who would start between Timo Werner and Christian Pulisic.
