Link Live Streaming Chelsea vs Real Madrid – Prediction of Real Madrid vs Chelsea in the schedule of the last 8 of the Champions League 2021/2022 leg 2 leads to the victory of the host. In the duel at the Santiago Bernabeu, Tuesday (12/4/2022) at 8pm UK time, Los Blancos temporarily led with a 3-1 advantage from leg 1.
Real Madrid’s path to become the team that first qualified for the UCL 2022 quarter-finals is quite open. The reason is, Los Blancos can still lose by 1 goal in this second leg from Chelsea thanks to the abolition of the away goals aggressiveness rule by UEFA starting this season. It’s a different story if the Blues are 2 goals ahead in this second leg. The winner will be determined through extra time, then a penalty shootout.

A 1-3 win at Stamford Bridge was quite significant for Real Madrid. At that time, Karim Benzema scored a hat-trick to make it a total of 11 goals, only 1 goal behind the top scorer of UCL 2021/2022, Robert Lewandowski (Bayern Munich) with 12 goals.
For Chelsea, if the reigning champions are eliminated in the last 8 of the UCL, this will mean they can only fight on the remaining 1 front this season, namely the FA Cup. The Blues have failed in the EFL Cup by only being runners-up, then 12 points behind Manchester City in the EPL. This is different from Real Madrid which is still alive in 2 competitions: UCL and Spanish League.
Real Madrid vs Chelsea Prediction & Champions League Schedule
Qualifying from the quarter-finals is Real Madrid’s hope, in return for last season’s loss to Los Blancos by Chelsea in the semifinals. However, Real Madrid deserves to be wary of the rise of Thomas Tuchel’s team who have just broken a bad streak of results with a big 0-6 win over Southampton in the Premier League on Saturday (9/4).
Positive results in St. Marry’s last week boosted the confidence of Kai Havertz and colleagues. Thomas Tuchel stated, Chelsea will be a special team if they are committed, defend with courage and have the right attitude in every duel.

“This is the foundation for us to show quality and that we are a strong team and this is a team with special players,” said Tuchel , after the game.
In the first leg of the last 8 round, Tuchel regretted the lack of duel intensity and passing precision which had a bad effect on Chelsea in the first half. Karim Benzema’s two goals came from headers, while the other came after pressing Edouard Mendy which led to the loss of the ball at the feet of the French striker.
Reported from Whoscore, the statistics on that match show Real Madrid are successful in aerial duels as much as 60%, while Chelsea is only 51%. Although Chelsea managed to make 20 shots, only 1 resulted in a goal. Real Madrid looked more effective by making 8 shots and 3 of them were able to be converted into goals.

On the other hand, Real Madrid has been on a positive trend since the 0-4 defeat to Barcelona at El Classico, March 21, 2022. Los Blancos won three wins in a row. Apart from the Champions League, victory was won in LaLiga against Celta Vigo and finally Getafe. Currently, Real Madrid is still leading the La Liga standings with 72 points, 12 points behind Barcelona and Sevilla.
“We didn’t lose our minds after the game against Barcelona. We have an advantage and we have to manage it wisely,” said Carlo Ancelotti.
Line-up Prediction: Real Madrid vs Chelsea
Real Madrid’s win over Getafe last weekend was obtained without the presence of Ferland Mendy. He has picked up an injury and is yet to be confirmed for the second leg against Chelsea.
Nacho may be able to replace the left-back position if Mendy has not recovered. Meanwhile, on the front lines, Karim Benzema has a great opportunity to be used as a mainstay at the spearhead.
In the Chelsea camp, Cesar Azpilicueta is reportedly positive for COVID-19 and will miss the match against Real Madrid. Romelu Lukaku, who was absent during Chelsea’s 6-0 win against Southampton, is also still not certain to appear in the Champions League.
Tuchel could use the same formation as when Chelsea won at St. Mary’s. Mason Mount can resume operations behind Werner and Havertz. The connection between the three was quite successful in that match. This had a positive effect on Werner who was able to score two goals.
Real Madrid (4-3-3): Courtois; Carvajal, Nacho, Alaba, Mendy; Modric, Casemiro, Kroos; Valverde, Benzema, Vinicius
Chelsea (3-4-1-2): Mendy; Christensen, Silva, Rudiger; James, Kante, Kovacic, Alonso; Mount; Havertz, Werner
