UCL: Chelsea tipped to beat Real Madrid in the quarter final

Former Manchester United and Bayern Munich star, Owen Hargreaves, has tipped Chelsea to be the team that will make it to the Champions League semi-final ahead of Real Madrid.

This comes after the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals draw was conducted on Friday, with Chelsea paired against Real Madrid.

Others are: Man City vs Atletico Madrid, Bayern Munich vs Villarreal and Liverpool vs Benfica.

Hargreaves believes the Blues would scale through and proceed to the last 4 in the tournament ahead of the Los Blancos.

“Chelsea will be super confident because they outplayed Real Madrid last year,” Hargreaves told BT Sport.

“Real Madrid are underdogs but they have real quality, it’s an incredible group of players.

“Chelsea will be wary because of Madrid’s experience. It’s a tough one, but I think Chelsea will go through.”

Chelsea won the UEFA champions league last season after they defeated fellow EPL side Man City in the final.

It appears they are on course to do in again, despite the issues going on at the club at the moment.
