Chelsea face Real Madrid on Wednesday night in what promises to be a vital game in the Blues' season. Thomas Tuchel's side were emphatically beaten by Brentford at the weekend and will be looking to put that result behind them when they face Los Blancos.
Thomas Frank's side shocked Chelsea on Saturday, comfortably beating the European Champions 4-1 at Stamford Bridge. Vitaly Janelt bagged a brace, Christian Eriksen claimed his first Bees goal and Yoane Wissa netted at the death as Frank’s side all but secured their top-flight status.
Toni Rudiger delivered a long-range thunderbolt to power Chelsea into a second-half lead, but the Blues capitulated straight afterwards for their heaviest loss of the campaign. After six straight wins while shaking off all the takeover talk, Chelsea cracked and lost focus and discipline – leaving boss Tuchel perturbed but not panicking.
