Champions League giants Real Madrid have landed in London ahead of their quarterfinal second leg clash with Chelsea.
Los Blancos head to Stamford Bridge with a comfortable lead on aggregate after a comprehensive demolition of the Blues at the Santiago Bernabeu last week.
A masterclass from Vinicius Junior, who created both goals, saw Karim Benzema and Marco Asencio score the goals en route to an easy 2-0 win over Frank Lampard’s Chelsea in the first leg.
Real Madrid arrive to bury Chelsea
With the 14-time Champions League giants in complete control the game, they have arrived London to complete the job.
Real landed in England sporting an all-black attire, looking like they are about to attend a funeral in the English capital.
Los Blancos were led by their manager Carlo Ancelotti, with the biggest names in the squad, Benzema, Toni Kroos, Luka Modric, and Vinicius amongst others all present.
“London, we are here,” the club posted on arrival on their social media account. “Looking good guys!”
Match preview
The hosts and their interim boss Lampard know that they need something special to turn this particular tie around at home.
Lampard’s Blues are in bad shape heading into the fixture having failed to win any of their last seven matches, including three successive defeats which have all come since Lampard too reigns from Graham Potter.
The Blues are looking to turn their season starting with a magical comeback win over Real Madrid tonight.
However, it’s going to be another long day at work for Lampard and his boys as they face a Real side that scored three goals the last time they visited Stamford Bridge.
Benzema was the tormentor-in-chief as he scored a brilliant hat-trick to inspire the LaLiga side to an easy 3-1 win last season.
Real are also in better form heading into this game with two consecutive wins in all competitions.
