Head to Head

They met in the 1998 UEFA Super Cup, Chelsea winning 1-0 in Monaco with Gianfranco Zola assisting Gustavo Poyet for the winner.

The first leg last week ended in a 1-1 draw in Madrid.

Chelsea Form


Chelsea are undefeated in 22 of their last 24 matches in all competitions. They are fighting hard for fourth spot in the Premier League and have reached the FA Cup final.

Thomas Tuchel’s side beat Man City 1-0 in the FA Cup semi-finals. They returned to the Premier League with a 0-0 draw at home against Brighton and 1-0 win at West Ham.

The Blues drew 1-1 at Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League semi-final first leg. They dominated much of the first half and will be disappointed not to add to Christian Pulisic’s opener.

Chelsea’s last match was a 2-0 home win against Fulham. Kai Havertz scored both goals in a comfortable victory, Fulham held to 0.29 expected goals.

Chelsea Injuries and Team News 


Chelsea midfielder Mateo Kovacic is injured and centre back Antonio Rüdiger is doubtful.

Expect César Azpilicueta, N'Golo Kanté and Jorginho to come back into the starting side here.

Real Madrid Form


Real Madrid are undefeated in their last 19 matches in all competitions. They are second in La Liga, two points behind Atletico Madrid and level with Barcelona.

Zinedine Zidane’s side recently kept four straight clean sheets. That included three 0-0 draws against Liverpool, Getafe, Real Betis and a 3-0 win at Cadiz.

Los Blancos drew 1-1 against Chelsea in the Champions League semi-final first leg. They conceded first in Spain, Karim Benzema equalising with their only shot on target.

Real Madrid’s last match was a 2-0 home win against Osasuna. Eder Militão and Casemiro scored the goals, Osasuna never looking like scoring.

Real Madrid Injuries & Team News


Right backs Lucas Vázquez and Daniel Carvajal are injured.

Centre back Sergio Ramos is doubtful alongside left backs Ferland Mendy and Marcelo.

Midfielder Federico Valverde could be available after testing positive for COVID-19.

Expect Toni Kroos and Luka Modric to come back into the starting side.

Eden Hazard started against Osasuna but is likely to be an option off the bench in London.

Verdict

Real Madrid and Chelsea are both strong at the back. With so much on the line, this should be another low scoring clash, with a draw written all over it.
