UEFA Champions League Quarter Final Preview

Olusola

Chelsea will face Real Madrid in the Quarter Final.

They met last season in the semis and Chelsea were 3-1 winners. Will history repeat itself?. Chelsea is now getting into form and will be very difficult to beat, moreover, they are the European champions. If Real wants to beat Chelsea, they will need to be at their best and not what we witnessed at EI Clasico.

Atletico Madrid take on Manchester City.

City should know by now that this game will be a highly tactical one. Atletico Madrid are specialists at eliminating English sides. It was United last time out and City could be next. Pep Guardiola will need to assemble a team that can overcome the frustrations Atletico will gIve them.

Benfica Vs Liverpool.

On paper, Liverpool should win this. But the champions league always has spring surprises. Benfica will play a giant killer role. This will motivate them to give Liverpool a run for their money.

Villarreal play Bayern Munich.

This game should be Bayern’s for the taking. But Villarreal  convincingly defeated the almighty Juventus in the second round.

Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester City have good first leg scores to take to their second leg matches. Chelsea easily defeated Lille 2-0 at Stamford Bridge, Liverpool were 2-0 away victors over Inter, while Manchester all but assured their place in the quarters after brushing aside Sporting CP at their own backyard by 0-5.

Juventus, Paris Saint Germain and Bayern Munich will be given a run for their money in the second leg.

PSG defeated Real Madrid 1-0 but their fate will be decided when they visit Madrid in the second leg.

Manchester United and Ajax will need to take full advantage of home advantage when they take on Atletico Madrid and Benfica respectively in the second leg. United held Atletico to a 2-2 draw while Ajax earned a vital 1-1 draw.

Sporting CP and Inter will have to produce some magic if they will overturn their first leg scores.

However, deep in extra time, Chelsea went ahead after Havertz converted a penalty in the 117 mins to seal their first ever World cup win.
