Real Madrid vs Chelsea – Team News

Chelsea face Real Madrid at the Bernabeu in just under an hour, and the teams are in!

The headline news is that Thiago Silva starts, after a couple of months out.

It’s a back 3 with Wesley Fofana, Kalidou Koulibaly and Silva at the back, Ben Chilwell and Reece James out wide, a middle 3 of Enzo Fernandez, Mateo Kovacic and N’Golo Kante, then Raheem Sterling and Joao Felix up front.

That’s almost exactly the team we would have picked from the players available – in fact, maybe it’s the exact team we would have picked? If nothing else, Super Frank knows what the fans want.

Let’s hope it works out for us – even a draw here is a good result. We beat them last year, and there should be a fresh wave of confidence with Thiago in the team again.

COME ON YOU BLUES!

Here are the full team line-ups for Real Madrid vs Chelsea (kick off at 20:00 pm GMT)
