Real Madrid travel to Stamford Bridge to take on Chelsea in the crucial second leg clash of the UEFA Champions League semi-final. The first leg ended in a 1-1 draw after Christian Pulisic's opener was canceled out by a brilliant strike from Karim Benzema.
With a crucial away goal in the bag, Chelsea will be slight favorites in the second leg. However, Real Madrid always seem to get the right results in the UEFA Champions League and Zidane's experience in crucial Champions League matches could swing the tie in Real Madrid's favor.
Real Madrid will be boosted by the returns of Eden Hazard, Ferland Mendy and Sergio Ramos while Chelsea have almost a fully fit squad to call upon with Mateo Kovacic the only player expected to miss out for the Blues.
With so much riding on the second leg, Thomas Tuchel will be focussed on his defense and it could well be a tactical and cagey affair tonight.

Sergio Ramos takes all the penalties for Real Madrid and is a huge threat from set-pieces. Karim Benzema, on the other hand, has been in tremendous form for Real Madrid and has got good returns in the last few matches.
