Thomas Tuchel has made four changes to his Chelsea side for this evening's Champions League quarter-final first leg against Real Madrid at Stamford Bridge – the biggest of which sees Marcos Alonso step out of starting XI and Cesar Azpilicueta lining up at left wing-back.
The Chelsea head coach has kept faith with the majority of his stars who were involved in the shock 4-1 defeat to Brentford but has reverted to his tried and trusted 3-4-2-1 formation, having deployed a 4-3-3 for the visit of the Bees on Saturday, which quite frankly, did not work.
In goal for the Blues once more is Edouard Mendy. The Senegal international makes his 20th appearance in the Champions League and has kept 14 clean sheets in the previous 19. Another shutout would go a long way to giving Chelsea a first-leg advantage to take to the Bernabeu.
