Chelsea will host on Wednesday Real Madrid in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League as it is considered one of the most anticipated games in this knockout stage.

The match will kick off at 22:00 CLT.

What do you need to know?

Chelsea will hope lightning strikes twice as the Blues host Madrid in the quarter-finals: last season the sides met in the semi-finals, a 2-0 home win at Stamford Bridge sealing a 3-1 aggregate success. And the rest, as they say, is history. N'Golo Kanté was the driving force behind that triumph, picking up player of the match awards in both legs (and the final!) and he is likely to be at the heart of things again. But watch out for another Frenchman, Karim Benzema, following his heroics against Paris Saint-Germain in the last 16.
