Real Madrid vs. Chelsea: the preview
Of the squads that participate in the Champions League competition, only eight remain with the aspiration to win the prestigious title. Among them, Real Madrid and Chelsea will meet in the first leg of the quarterfinals. The first match will take place at the Santiago Bernabéu and the series will culminate in English territory.
The ‘merengues’ are going through an inconsistent season. Despite having reached the Copa del Rey final and continuing in the continental tournament, they have had defensive difficulties that have prevented them from competing for the regular championship. Real Madrid have experienced difficulties, although they have shown great potential in their offense.
On the other hand, the current period for the ‘Blues’ is being quite disappointing, since the team is in an intermediate position in the Premier League table and achieving a good performance in the Champions League has become very difficult. One of the main obstacles they face at Stamford Bridge is the lack of stability in their defense.
