Who trained and who didn't in Chelsea training session ahead of Real Madrid clash

Chelsea trained for the final time ahead of tomorrow's Champions League quarter-final second-leg tie with Real Madrid on Monday. The Blues are currently 2-0 down on aggregate and face an uphill task of turning the tie around.

Frank Lampard's men come into the contest at Stamford Bridge on the back of three straight defeats after losing 2-1 to Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday. Chelsea must overturn a two-goal lead if they are to advance to the semi-final, with them winning the competition the last possible route of bringing Champions League football back to west London next season.

However, they will be without defender Kalidou Koulibaly after the 31-year-old was not spotted at an open training session at Cobham on Monday. The centre-back was forced off in the first-leg with a hamstring issue after sprinting to recover a loose ball.
