The image below depicts how Chelsea could lineup and stop Real Madrid from advancing to the next stage.
Mendy will be the right man to feature in the goal for Chelsea. He was able to stop Real Last season and will likely help his team to secure an important victory at Stamford bridge. However, Thomas Tuchel might combine Chalobah, Thiago Silva and Antonio Rudiger in the central defense. His 3-4-3 formation will help to provide extensive coverage in both defense and Midfield. The full-backs will be the ones that will help Thomas Tuchel to perfect his plans.
Cesar Azpilicueta and Marco Alonso will need to venture deep into the Midfield during Chelsea’s attack but must return to the defense to help the central Defenders fend off the attacking threat of Karim Benzema, Asensio and Vinicius Junior. However, Mason Mount and Christian Pulisic will do a hard job by exploiting the spaces in the flanks left by Real Madrid’s Full-backs
