Tonight you have a chance to enjoy the rematch of last year’s quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League. Namely, this Wednesday evening Real Madrid welcomes Chelsea to play their first match of the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals.

Chelsea, on the other hand, was better against Dortmund, winning the ⅛ finals with a total score of 2:1 (1:0; 2:0).
Last year these squads played very dramatic quarter-finals, so it’s going to be very interesting to see what’s going to happen tonight at Santiago Bernabéu Stadium.
Real Madrid CF
Last year’s Champions League winners Real Madrid, are definitely losing the race for the title in LaLiga. They are the second-placed team with 59 points, 13 points behind first-place Barcelona. After losing to Barcelona by 2:1, Real Madrid won the following game against Valladolid by 6:0. The great moment was that the Madrididans avenged Barcelona in the Copa Del Rey semi-finals by winning the game with a final score of 0:4. But unfortunately, Real Madrid lost the match in the previous round in the league against Villarreal by 2:3.
Hence, Real Madrid will definitely bring their maximum in the Champions League in order to finish the season with a big trophy in their hands.
Chelsea FC
The Blues have a very turbulent season. They are sitting in the 11th position in the Premier League with a score of 10 wins, 9 draws, and 11 defeats. Their last victory in the league was against Leicester by 1:3. After this match, Chelsea played 2 draws against Everton (2:2), and Liverpool (0:0), and also lost 2 games against Aston Villa (0:2) and the Wolves (1:0).
So tonight the Blues from London must show something different in order to avoid losing the tough challenge in Madrid.
