Yes, yes, I know that literally everyone is backing Atleti and Chelsea to end this clash with under 2 goals scored. Well, what else should you expect from the two teams which conceded 3 goals between them in their respective last 5 games. But we're talking about the Champions League quarter-finals here!!! Atletico need to bounce back from the first-leg 1-0 loss this time around and I do believe that the current La Liga leaders have enough attacking power to turn this clash into a quite entertaining one. Chelsea, for the their part, have already proven that they can beat Simeone's side.
Can't predict nothing else than another cautious performance from both sides that are defensively very astute, especially Chelsea. I think Simeone won't rush things, while Chelsea will comfortably sit at the back trying to find their chance in the counter-attack. I expect a very close game with only 1 goal.
With no goals conceded in their previous four matches, it's highly unlikely that Chelsea are going to lose in this one after last month's 1-0 win over Atleti. Madrid, of course, will be looking to bounce back in London but given Chels displays unnder Tuchel (12 games unbeten) I don't see Blues losing on Wednesday.
