Real Madrid are set to be without four first-team stars for their Champions League quarter-final, first leg with Chelsea on Wednesday evening as the Blues target a second consecutive European crown.
Thomas Tuchel led his side past Lille with ease in the last-16 despite the matches taking place among a cloud of uncertainty brought on by Roman Abramovich's decision to sell the club. After being humbled 4-1 by Brentford on Saturday, supporters will be expecting a big reaction against the Spanish giants.
Real Madrid came from two goals down on aggregate against Paris Saint-Germain with a stunning Karim Benzema hat-trick ensuring Los Blancos remain on course for a 14th title. Chelsea secured the bragging rights last time the sides met, booking their place in last season's final with a win against Madrid in the semi-final.
