Сhelsea vs Real Madrid Prediction: Expect a win for the guests

Сhelsea will face Real Madrid in the Champions League quarter-final on 18 April 2023. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

Сhelsea

Frankly, Chelsea has been awful this season. They have dropped out of all the FA Cups, failed in the EPL, and will now finish in the Champions League. With Frank Lampard's arrival, the picture has not changed so far, with defeats to mid-table Wolverhampton (0:1) and Brighton (1:2) in the EPL and a 0:2 defeat to Real Madrid. It is painful to watch the Londoners sit 11th in the English League table and cannot win six games in a row. As for the first leg of the UEFA Champions League quarter-final, Chelsea managed to fight back but no more than Cadiz, who also lost 0:2 to Real a few days later.

Real Madrid

Real Madrid has a good chance of clinching a golden double. They will need only to beat Osasuna in the Spanish Cup final and clinch the Champions League trophy again. The task for the team is not the most difficult. The main thing is that now the team is in great shape - we can remind you of the 4:0 win against Barcelona in the Spanish Cup semi-final, the 2:0 victory over Chelsea in the Champions League, and the previous away win over Cadiz (2:0). Karim Benzema, who has scored seven goals in the past five meetings, is also in excellent form. In general, Real Madrid is doing well, and there is no doubt that they will reach the Champions League semi-finals.

Expert Betting Tips

The bookmakers are not burying Chelsea ahead of this battle for some reason. Certainly, they are a name and status club that will now play with the support of their fans at the legendary Stamford Bridge. But the name and home-field advantage alone will not be enough to ensure they beat Real Madrid in their return leg of the Champions League quarter-final. It is unclear what is going on inside the team - it is obvious that they have no chance of success in these conditions. Madrid is stable and healthy, and their leaders are in great spirits.

There is no doubt that Real Madrid is not going to London to keep the scoreline down. The team is going to win. We suggest as the main bet a clean win for the guests for splendid odds - they are stronger than their opponents at the moment. We can also add a total over - we don't expect a goal drought, as the home side has nothing to lose.
