New Delhi: Chelsea will be clashing with Atletico Madrid to book a spot in the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday.
Thomas Tuchel’s side hasn’t been playing the most anticipated game in the Champions League tournament. However, Chelsea has shored up their defenses and this might the only thing the Blues need to do on Wednesday. Their defenses are up to the mark as the team hasn’t conceded a goal against Manchester United, Liverpool, and Everton in the past games.
The boss insists it’s his job to get forwards firing… ?⚽

On the other hand, Atletico Madrid lost their leading ways as they remained goalless against a 10-men Getafe draw. Recently, the league giants have been struggling for their form and have won two games out of the last seven.
Prediction:
Chelsea 1-1 Atletico Madrid
Both the teams have struggled to score in their past competitions. However, Chelsea can be seen in better form and the Blues should be looking forward to advance in the further tournament.
