The second leg of the UEFA Champions League quarter final encounter will take place on Tuesday with two tough clashes.

The encounter will take place at 21:00 CLT.

Real Madrid will host Chelsea as the Whites enter the game with two-goal advantage after defeating the Blues in the first leg 3-1.

What happened in the first leg?

Two words: Karim Benzema. Madrid's wily No9 scored a second successive hat-trick in the competition, including two magnificent first-half headers, to put the 13-time champions firmly in control. The holders had halved their arrears through Kai Havertz, but Benzema seized on an Edouard Mendy lapse soon after half-time to complete his hat-trick and leave the Blues with a mountain to climb in the Spanish capital.
