If history tells us anything, it’s Chelsea’s defense of them Champions League The title expires tonight. That’s because Real Madrid beat them 3-1 at Stamford Bridge last week, and when Real Madrid won away in Europe, they made 94.4% of the time. That’s 34 times in 36 games. It’s fair to say that Chelsea are up against it statistically.

However, one man at Chelsea was responsible for one of the times Real Madrid failed to qualify. In 2019, Hakim Ziyech scored the first goal in Ajax’s impressive 4-1 victory at the Bernabeu, eliminating champions Real from the competition they had won for three consecutive years, despite losing the first leg 2-1 in Amsterdam. So he knows he can do it. Chelsea will support the memories of last season when they fell real madrid in the semi-finals. Real Madrid is still the frontrunner to go forward, of course… but nothing has been signed and sealed yet. The match begins at the Bernabéu at 8 pm GMT, 9 pm in Madrid. It’s up!
