Chelsea vs. Real Madrid: Confirmed Line Up
A return to Champions League hostilities awaits Chelsea and Real Madrid in what will prove to be the ultimate definer of Chelsea’s season. A redemption for the Blues and Frank Lampard for losing 3 consecutive games on the bounce upon his return to Stamford Bridge or a 4th defeat for the former Everton boss?
Whatever that will be will be left for the match to decide as Chelsea return to face La Liga giants, Real Madrid again but this time on home grounds, with the home advantage.
Reports had flown yesterday of Todd Boehly’s annoyance with the Chelsea team as evident from his dressing room visit to lecture the team, but it remains to be seen if words are just words or meant to initiate a response from the slumbering Blues.
Real Madrid on the other hand will be looking to improve on their fear factor in England after decimating Liverpool on home ground 2-5 some weeks back. If the Los Blancos can initiate same feat in this fixture, Manchester City and Pep Guardiola stand some test should they make it past Bayern Munich themselves to clinch a place in the Semi-Final.
History can be made by Carlo Ancelotti in this fixture, and same goes to Frank Lampard if he can turn things around.
Here goes the lineup for both teams:
CHELSEA:
Real Madrid:
