Atletico Madrid: Remember how they ran away from La Liga? Well, no more. At the moment, it seems to be a two-horse race alongside Real Madrid, as Atletico won only one of their last four games on Saturday and just lost to Levante at home. The defense was packed with errors, while the attack was off, which is rare. Atletico have registered 42 shots in the last two weeks, both against Levante, scoring only once. It’s just a rough patch, they’ll hope, and not a sign of continued form.

Chelsea: Christian Pulisic is set to return from a slight injury and is expected to play for the Blues, while Thiago Silva is still out with his injury, putting the Chelsea backline in a tough spot against a speedy, talented attack. Since Silva picked up his injury against Tottenham on Feb. 4, the Blues have conceded just two goals in four games, with Andreas Christensen coming in. But those matches were against below-average attacks of Sheffield United, Barnsley, Newcastle, and Southampton.Β
Predictions:
Thomas Tuchel expects a tough night in the #UCL! #ATMCHE
