Chelsea face a season-defining clash on Wednesday evening as they head to Spain for a Champions League quarter-final against Real Madrid. The Blues head into the tie off the back of a three-game winless Premier League run under three different manager without finding the back of the net across the 270 minutes played.
Blues legend Frank Lampard returned to the club as interim manager until the end of the season just under a week ago, and he faces a monumental task. Chelsea have looked off-colour in front of goal for the majority of this campaign and now the 44-year-old must take his team into one of the most daunting Stadiums in Europe to play one of the greatest teams in the world.
Speaking about Madrid ahead of their Santiago Bernabeu battle, Lampard said: "We have to understand the strengths of the Real Madrid team, their qualities in possession and their individual talent. We have to be very disciplined in our game off the ball, and understand the threats.
