CHELSEA VS REAL MADRID PREDICTION
An extremely tight contest in Spain saw Chelsea and Real Madrid draw 1-1 in their Champions League semi-final first leg. The two sides do battle once again at Stamford Bridge with Real Madrid knowing that they have to score at least once if they wish to overcome the Blues and reach the final. That won’t prove easy against a Chelsea outfit extremely well drilled defensively. The hosts have kept nine clean sheets in their last ten games at Stamford Bridge in all competitions and head coach Thomas Tuchel will likely prioritise defensive stability here, with a view to utilising his side’s pace going forward at every opportunity in a bid to catch Real Madrid out on the break. Three of their last six matches in all competitions have seen Zinedine Zidane’s men fail to score and much will rely on Los Blancos striker Karim Benzema, who netted their only goal in the first leg. A tense contest looks on the cards with both teams well aware just how crucial the first goal may turn out to be in this second leg. The first leg in Madrid saw under 2.5 goals scored over the course of 90 minutes and the same outcome should be backed in this one.
Tip: UNDER 2.5 GOALS
