Real Madrid will face Chelsea in Quarter-final 1st leg of the 2022/2023 Champions League which can be watched via live streaming on CBS Sports or Paramount+ on Wednesday, April 12 2023, ET.
Real Madrid will host Chelsea at the Estadio Santiago Bernabéu on Wednesday afternoon for the first leg of the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals. Both teams are the defending champions from the previous two editions and are now trying to win this prestigious trophy in order to save their unsatisfactory season in the domestic league.
Madrid just beat Liverpool 6-2 on aggregate in the round of 16, with Karim Benzema starring in the win by scoring in the second leg. They will now focus fully on defending their unsolved 14th Champions League title. They have a good record against English clubs, winning their last four meetings, including last year’s final against Liverpool.
Chelsea also qualified for the quarter-finals by beating Borussia Dortmund 2-1 on aggregate in the round of 16. They managed to turn things around after losing 1-0 in the first leg by winning 2-0 in the second leg at home. Raheem Sterling and Kai Havertz became Chelsea heroes by scoring goals in the second leg. However, their performance has declined in the last four matches in all competitions.
The two teams met at the same stage last term, with Chelsea coming out 3-2 winners after extra time at the Estadio Santiago Bernabéu despite losing 5-4 on aggregate. Mason Mount, Antonio Rüdiger and Timo Werner scored for the Blues, while Rodrygo and Benzema scored for los Blancos.
Real Madrid rely on Vinícius Júnior as their top scorer in the Champions League. He has scored six goals, which is the fourth most in the competition in 2022/2023. He also scored and assisted in both legs of last season’s game against Chelsea. The Brazilian national team player can be a threat to Chelsea’s defense
Chelsea have Sterling and Havertz as Chelsea’s most clinical players in front of goal with three goals each in the Champions League this season. They both scored in the 2-0 win over Dortmund in the last 16 second leg. They could be the hope for Chelsea to score that important away goal.
This match will be a big test for both teams who are fighting for the Champions League title. Real Madrid have the home advantage and better record, but the Blues are highly motivated and passionate. Who will emerge victorious in this first leg?
