I agree with you, the only reason we cannot discard completely a possible comeback by Chelsea is that we have seen even crazier things happening on the past, and as such Chelsea still has a chance to win and move forward to the next round, but if Chelsea plays at the same level they played their last match and Real Madrid does the same then there is almost no way for Chelsea to stage that comeback, so something must be done by their coach and their players to try to improve their performance in a hurry.

The result that will be difficult to determine this night is the result of Ac Milan vs Napoli because I learnt that Victor Osimhen will be in the line up and I know the guy has some kind of forces that changes game.
But for Real Madrid and Chelsea I am not expecting any wonders and there won't be any wonders.
Real Madrid will qualify against Chelsea and Chelsea won't be able to see draw thus night, let alone winnings. You cannot keep on doing the same things and expect different results.

For me the chances of FC Chelsea to advance into the next round are just as slim, or even non-existent, as the one of Bayern Munich tomorrow. While FC Chelsea is "only" 2 goals behind against Real Madrid for me the performances of Chelsea in the last few games were even weaker than the ones of Bayern Munich. Real totally dominated them in the first leg and could have scored even more goals, while Bayern Munich was at least at the same level with ManCity until they conceded the second goal, after that they completely fell apart.
That being said, this is football and if Chelsea is able to go into the halftime break with a 1-0 lead then everything is possible again because even Real will get nervous when they are in the 80th minute with a 1-0 for Chelsea.

overall Madrid is superior to Chelsea for now. but it won't be easy to score goals at Chelsea. Madrid will qualify for the Semi-Finals. but I didn't destroy Chelsea today.
while the Napoli vs Milan match. Milan may already be superior on aggregate. and this can affect the game of both teams. Napoli will be more aggressive than in the first leg. they are only one goal apart. it will not keep Milan safe.

They could as they created enough opportunities to win like 3 - 0 or 4 - 0 but some of their players were selfish and made bad decisions. I don't know those moments will be keys for Chelsea to make a comeback after all.

At Stamford Bridge, Real Madrid don't need another win and they only need to have a draw or even lose with 1-goal difference to beat Chelsea after all. I believe Real Madrid will be able to achieve and even Chelsea score first, Real Madrid are strong enough to face with such pressure.

Napoli will play with all they have as they will have their first semi final in their club history if they can beat AC Milan and go to semi finals. Osimhen is back and he will be a biggest hope for Napoli after some bad matches recently without Osimhen by his injury.

The second leg match between Chelsea and Real Madrid will take place today and like most predictions, everyone will definitely favor Real Madrid to win. On the other hand, Chelsea is still slumped with its current performance. The remaining coach of Chelsea's season Frank Lampard has not been able to awaken the potential of his players since the last few matches in the domestic league and will Chelsea be able to put pressure on Real Madrid, considering that Chelsea will be the host. Looking at the betting odds for the two teams, it's actually not much different from Real Madrid's odds @2.50 and chelsea with odds @2.75, but with this slight difference in odds it doesn't make me hesitate to keep betting on Real Madrid's win. At least Real Madrid will win again with a score of 0-2.

I have high expectations for both games. Especially since Chelsea must win by 2 goals in order to be able to enforce extra time in any case. But that too is quite an achievement in itself. Real Madrid are razor sharp on the counterattack and if Madrid are able to score a goal quickly then I think it will be difficult for Chelsea. How do you do that? Play compactly, make sure you don't concede a goal and at the same time try to play offensively yourself and score goals. Real Madrid itself set the example a number of times last season, but that only went well a few times. Top favorite to win the CL is City, but they are not just finished with Chelsea or Real Madrid in a possible semi-final.

ya.ya.yo!

The MIlan vs Napoli match will certainly be an interesting match to watch because Napoli still have many chances to win in this second leg match, Osimhen's return certainly makes the Milan side have to increase their vigilance. Because this season, the 24-year-old player from Nigeria has become the scariest scourge on the Partenopei front line. Moreover, the match will play at home to Napoli, of course, will be an additional point for Napoli to be able to appear aggressive to score more than 2 goals to qualify for the next round of the semifinals.

Apart from that, the meeting between Chelsea and Real Madrid was a meeting that was not too difficult for Madrid, because Madrid had pocketed 2 goals in the first leg so it was enough to win just 1 goal or get a draw, Madrid will qualify for the next round of the semi-finals. Chelsea will have no hope because they are really in a bad situation.

I am also still unsure about Chelsea's game even though they are playing at home they are not too convincing and that is inseparable from the performances that are still inconsistent so there will still be many doubts and Real Madrid is a tough opponent for the UCL so this is a big chance to win the second leg I predict same only for Real Madrid, even if the result is a draw but it doesn't make Chelsea better then I don't think it will change anything for Chelsea.

The odds for Real Madrid are still quite high, the bookies still give hope and it's far from likely they can win, because I know that away from home the bookies always give big odds.

Even though Chelsea is in a chaotic form, it doesn't mean that Real Madrid can beat Chelsea with a score like 3 to 4 goals. After all, in their first leg which was also played at the Santiago Bernabéu, Real Madrid only won with a score of 2-0. So yes, I personally predict that Real Madrid will not keep trying to beat Chelsea by a big score, because a draw is enough for Real Madrid to qualify.

But regarding the match between Napoli against Milan, of course, this match will be a very interesting match to look forward to. The aggregate gap is not too big, of course, making Napoli, who will play at home, make a big effort to be able to beat Milan and maybe with a convincing score too.

The second division match between Real Madrid and Chelsea will have the most spotlight in the Champions League.  

Real Madrid beat Chelsea 2-0 at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium in the first league match. Real Madrid is already two goals ahead of Chelsea. And today's game will confirm which team is going to the next round of the Champions League.  

Chelsea is always a strong team at their home ground but there is no chance to keep Chelsea ahead of Real Madrid even at their home ground.  
Today's match may be won by Real Madrid 1-0, if not, it may be a 1-1 draw.
I only said this much from my side that after the match it can be confirmed which team has won by how many goals.

Well, if Osimhen appears excellent in this match, then he is the most dangerous threat than any other player that Napoli has. for sure, Napoli will play it out in this match to overthrow AC Milan. this match, became a very decisive match for Luciano Spallerti's team. lost on aggregate at Milan headquarters, making Napoli have to be two goals ahead in this match without reply. Unfortunately, there are two Napoli players who must be absent in this match, namely, Min-jae Kim and Fank Anguissa who are banned from playing due to card accumulation.
well, with the absence of these midfielders and defenders, it could be a big loss for Napoli when they play against AC Milan. referring to the predicted line-up that Napoli will play in this match, as usual they didn't make many changes. Spalletti uses a 4-3-3 system, and makes Osimhen a Target Man.

As for AC Milan, in fact, Milan only needed to hold Napoli to a draw until the game whistle was stopped. yes, only with a draw Milan has the right to qualify for the next phase. however, if I refer to the predicted line-up that Milan will apply. apparently, Pioli will only rely on counterattacks.
To be honest, for me this fight is pretty even. even though Napoli plays Osimhen, there is no guarantee that they will win this match. actually, I prefer to bet for a draw. even so, I will take a risk and choose AC Milan in this gamble even though I know the probability that Napoli has is quite high.

Though I agreed that Chelsea chances of winning in Bernabau is very slim, however I think Lampard will play an attacking formation after all the team has a 2-0 deficit to overturn scoring a goal in the first half could turn things around for the club, personally I think Real Madrid are not in the best form now because in the first leg at Stanford bridge despite Chelsea playing with 10 men after Chidwell was sent off the team kept the scoreline at 2-0 till the end of the match, I am expecting a different ball game today because Chelsea hope of playing European competition lies on today's match if they can turn thinds around the better, it's indeed going to be a tough match and we shouldn't underrate Lampard.

The chance is still there but it's very small. It may be less than 2% maybe. The worst performance of chelsea became the main factor why chelsea will not able to be qualified for the semi final against real madrid. Real madrid was coming to the stamford bridge. I wonder what kind of strategy that will be used by lampard. Lampard is always coming with different formation in any matches. I have seen how lampard is very often changing the composition from the club.
It will be so good to see some players like reece and kante played in their right positions. I knew that chelsea had no chance in this match.

Bookies were favoring real madrid at this moment. It would be so good to pick real madrid. Real madrid may see chelsea is very different compared with the last season where real madrid was almost getting comeback by chelsea.
It's likely that if havertz will be used against real madrid. I do like when havertz was playing at right and timo werner as striker. I remember this formation was making feel so difficult to win against chelsea.
Chelsea may able use the same strategy again.

The most critical match in the Champions League return matches to be played today will be played between Napoli and Milan. Milan won the first match 1-0. In the last league match played between them, Milan defeated Napoli 0-2 away. There has been a lack of form in Napoli in recent weeks. In the other match, Real Madrid will again beat Chelsea on the road. He can even win with 3-4 goals. Because Chelsea's defensive and offensive line is not good.

The game between Napoli and AC Milan will be challenging because both teams are capable of playing well. However, I believe Napoli will take today's match more seriously than AC Milan because they are upset about losing 1-0 in their first leg. However, I also believe that Napoli's sticker Osimhen is to blame for their failure to advance because he was not in the right frame of mind to play that day. Now that he has recovered, I believe AC Milan should exercise caution because Napoli can rebound.
Ac Milan has strong players who can prevent Napoli from scoring goals, but it will be very difficult to do so because Napoli is about to recolize just 1 goal and, in my opinion, they may be able to score more if they have a chance.

Given the performances I've seen from Chelsea players in the last few matches, I don't think Chelsea will be able to take any home advantage against Real Madrid. The Madrid team is very strong and organized. In the first leg match against Chelsea, we only saw Real Madrid's dominance. Chelsea's performance was very poor. Madrid won this match by 2-0 margin. And the important thing is that Chelsea managed only 7 shots in this match. Chelsea will not be able to break down Madrid's defense if this poor attacking performance continues. I decided to bet Madrid to win the second leg.

I do not see any chances of Chelsea qualifying to the next round of the Champions League. Even if Chelsea has to play the Champions League with any club in England, nobody is even sure that Chelsea can win even if it is against Crystal Palace.
So if we are not sure that Chelsea can pull fight against Crystal Palace, why then are we then giving ourselves hope that Chelsea can beat Madrid in the Champions League?
Chelsea can beat Madrid in Laliga or ither leagues but it is not in the Champions League. I don't know the strategy that Frank Lampard is going to use, but I surely know that Chelsea will not progress to the next level. They will not even have a goal this night.

Chelsea will really have to pull out all the stops to beat Madrid tonight. Last meeting, Madrid won 1-3 in London, but the same final score was also on the board in Madrid in favor of Chelsea. This could well be a game with a considerable number of goals, in any case it seems to me an open game in which Real Madrid will certainly not play defensively. They will play exactly the same as they normally do. They can also only play one way, extremely sharp counter football and they are very good at that. But in the other match between napoli and Milan, there are also plenty of chances for both teams. So we get 2 clashes today.

Chelsea stands no chance of escape tonight from the angels as they have shown no performance to that effect in their previous game in the EPL. Lampard doesn't have yet what it takes to manage a team like Chelsea as his ranks as a coach is below standard. The situation of Chelsea demands a veteran coach with great experiences around Europe and that's lacking in lampard's profile. All they can do tonight is to try as much as possible not to conceive much goals but as for getting a win over Madrid due to home influence is just not feasible for the Chelsea of today.
