On Tuesday evening, two second-leg quarter-final matches will be played in the UEFA Champions League, after which the first two clubs to advance to the semi-finals will be determined.
In London, Chelsea will seek revenge against Paris Saint-Germain, while Real Madrid will try to once again prove superiority over Borussia Dortmund on the road.
Chelsea - Paris Saint-Germain
For London's Chelsea club, there is no room for error and victory is crucial. In the first match, Paris Saint-Germain punished the visitors, but the battle between these teams is not over yet.
The first leg in Paris ended in a victory for Laurent Blanc's team with a score of 3-1. PSG scored an early goal in the match, but Eden Hazard equalized in the beginning of the first half. In the second half, the hosts forced the "Blues" to surrender, with goals from Javier Pastore and David Luiz, who scored an own goal.
In the last match, Chelsea had a successful performance, celebrating an easy victory against Stoke City in front of their home fans. Mohamed Salah, Frank Lampard, and Willian stood out among the "Aristocrats". London's team remains in second place in the Premier League, trailing the leaders by only two points.
At the weekend, PSG players also celebrated a 3-0 victory at home against Reims. The Parisians only managed to score their opponents once, as Reims goalkeeper Aissa Oniangue scored an own goal twice.
For Chelsea in this match, John Obi Mikel, Samuel Eto'o, and Marco van Ginkel will be absent. PSG will also be without their top scorer Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who is unable to play due to injuries.
Borussia Dortmund - Real Madrid
At first glance, it seems that everything is decided in this match, but it is not easy for any visiting team in Dortmund. At the Santiago Bernabeu stadium, Real Madrid convincingly defeated Borussia Dortmund, but the points have not been secured yet.
The "Royal" club took sweet revenge on the "yellow and blacks" in the first quarter-final match last season. Carlo Ancelotti's team celebrated a 3-0 victory, with goals from Gareth Bale, Isco, and Cristiano Ronaldo. The visitors from Germany did not have many opportunities to score, playing with a weakened lineup.
At the weekend, Borussia players secured an important victory in the Bundesliga. After a tough battle, they defeated Wolfsburg 2-1. The team leaders Robert Lewandowski and Marco Reus scored the winning goals. With 58 points, Dortmund is in second place in the Bundesliga, but they are no longer fighting for the title.
In contrast, Real Madrid players had an easy time at the weekend. In the La Liga, the "Whites" defeated Real Sociedad 4-0, although they had difficulties in the first half of the match. In this match, Cristiano Ronaldo did not play, but Asier Illarramendi, Gareth Bale, Pepe, and Alvaro Morata scored goals. Real Madrid is still fighting for the title with Atletico and Barcelona.
Jurgen Klopp will have to manage at home without Sebastian Kehl, Neven Subotic, Sven Bender, Ilkay Gundogan, Marcel Schmelzer, and goalkeeper Roman Weidenfeller. In the Spanish capital team, Cristiano Ronaldo can already play, but we will not see Marcelo, Alvaro Arbeloa, Sami Khedira, and Jese Rodriguez on the field.
