My expectation from the Chelsea - Real Madrid draw is that Real Madrid can move Chelsea out of this tournament this time. They had a bad experience against Chelsea last season. I don't think that the history will repeat itself here. We are all seeing a much stronger Real Madrid in this season until this point. We all saw how they destroyed PSG despite being in a bad situation first. And I don't see the same Chelsea in this season. I don't feel like they can eliminate Real Madrid once again by this level of performance.
Real Madrid has been lost in El Classico Laliga. Will it also give influence to the mental of the players? Although maybe they purposely did not play hard because they want to save their power to play against Chelsea.
But exactly, bot Real Madrid and Chelsea are a big clubs, they may be drawn in the first leg, but something interesting and surprising may be also existed during the game and probably will be a surprising result of the game. At least, they must let all power to face each other in the field and to prove wihc one is better
I would like to see how Real Madrid would have destroyed Paris Saint-Germain if it hadn't been for Donnarumma's dude trick and the subsequent collapse of the entire game of the club from Paris
Also, a lot will depend on whether Benzema will participate in the match, because Real Madrid with Benzema and Real Madrid without Benzema are two big differences and the current El Classico showed all this with great clarity. Therefore, for me personally, the result of the match between Real Madrid and Chelsea is by no means obvious, despite the bright victory of Real Madrid in the match with Paris Saint-Germain, which until a certain time was also by no means obvious.
PSG's squad was strong, but PSG was defeated due to a lack of mutual understanding between the players. But Chelsea will not make the same mistake as PSG. Chelsea has a strong squad. Their performance in the Premier League is also consistent. Moreover, if Chelsea's defenders will stop Benzema, they will be able to win. Real Madrid rely on Benzema's goals to win against strong teams.
With Messi, Neymar, Mbappe and others, we all agree that PSG is a strong team. But the fact is that a strong team with many star players may
not necessarily win, because what's interesting about football is that it takes solid cooperation between players in order to win. This has not been
owned by PSG so far, Pochettino in my opinion failed to make the star players at PSG able to work well together. So it's not surprising that PSG
were finally knocked out of the Champions League.
While Real Madrid has good cooperation between one player and another. But the problem with Real Madrid is they depend too much on Benzema
to score goals. So like you said if Chelsea defenders are able to stop Benzema there is a chance Chelsea can beat Real Madrid. And I'm sure with
Tuchel's experience, he knows that too and will order Chelsea players to limit the movement of Benzema. Actually, both Chelsea and Real Madrid
have the same chance to win, because both have almost the same quality of players. But why do I prefer Real Madrid, because Real Madrid has
a history of winning the Champions League more and that's what makes the mentality of Real Madrid players stronger than Chelsea.
