Embarrassing is only scratching the surface of how poorly the club is operating right now. They have just four wins in all competitions since the start of the calendar year, with no sign of things turning around.
Real Madrid
A slight blip against Villarreal aside, Carlo Ancelotti’s team have been winning games and doing so in style. They put six past Valladolid, four past Barcelona, and have scored six more in their last three matches.
After a 2-0 win in the Bernabeu, they enter this second leg with a strong lead and the ability to rip the home side to shreds.
Recent Head to Head
Before their clash in Madrid one week ago, the record between these two teams heavily favoured Chelsea. In fact, that remains just their second defeat to Real Madrid in all competitions. We have seen the Blues enter the final leg of a Champions League tie against Los Blancos with a two-goal deficit before, but they failed to overcome it.
Chelsea vs Real Madrid Prediction
With Frank Lampard in charge it’s difficult to see the London side winning many games, he was sacked by Everton just a few months ago for getting them into a relegation dogfight and he has now lost three in a row since becoming interim manager at Stamford Bridge. Ancelotti and his side are sure to win, and in ruthless fashion.
Chelsea vs Real Madrid Betting Odds
