Real Madrid take on Chelsea this weekend

Real Madrid are back in action in the UEFA Champions League this week as they take on Chelsea in a crucial semi-final fixture at the Estadio Alfredo Di Stefano on Wednesday. Both teams have been impressive in Europe's premier competition so far and will look to impress in this fixture.

Chelsea have made their way into the top four of the Premier League over the past week and have been a resurgent force under Thomas Tuchel. The Blues have been a robust unit so far in the UEFA Champions League and will want to seize the initiative with an away goal or two in this game.

Real Madrid, on the other hand, have fallen behind in the La Liga title race and cannot afford another slip-up this week. Los Blancos have struggled with injuries this season and will need to be at their best against a well-drilled and formidable Chelsea outfit.
