Real Madrid vs Chelsea live stream: match preview
Real Madrid and Chelsea will play each other in the knockout stages of the Champions League for the third season in a row when they meet tonight.
Real Madrid's results have been mixed in recent weeks, with just four wins from their last nine games in all competitions. A 6-0 thrashing of Real Valladolid and 4-0 Copa Del Rey win against Barcelona were sandwiched between a 2-1 La Liga defeat at Camp Nou and 3-2 defeat against Villarreal at the Bernabeu on Saturday, but no team loves playing in the Champions League more than Real Madrid. Their 14 titles is twice as many as second-placed AC Milan and you can never bet against them adding another.
There are six changes for Real, with Carvajal, Militao, Kroos, Modric, Camavinga and Valverde coming in for Nacho, Rudiger, Vazquez, Ceballos, Tchouameni and Asensio. Only the front three of Vinicius, Benzema and Rodrygo, plus Courtois in goal, remains unchanged.
It's less than a week since Frank Lampard returned to the dugout at Chelsea and things didn't exactly go to plan in his first game back in charge. A spectacular strike from Wolves' Matheus Nunes turned out to be the only goal of the game and continued Chelsea's rotten run of form, which now includes just four wins since the start of January, but the Blues' record against Real Madrid is good. They've only lost once in seven meetings. Can Lampard keep that up in Spain tonight?
There are three changes to the Chelsea side for tonight and it looks a lot like three at the back, with Havertz, Cucurella and Gallagher out for Thiago Silva, Kante and Chilwell.
Real Madrid vs Chelsea kicks off at 8pm BST / 3pm EDT today, Wednesday 12th April, at the Santiago Bernabeu, Madrid. Make sure you know how to watch a Real Madrid vs Chelsea live stream.
