Champions League, two matches for the semi-finals: All attention on Chelsea Dortmund
Two return matches in the Champions League will be played today. Benfica will challenge Club Brugge at home and the Portuguese are seen as favorites to get the semi-final ticket.
The first challenge between them played in Belgium ended with the result 2-0 for the Portuguese. Benfica will enter the field of play today with three absences, where Bah, Draxler and Ristic will see the challenge from the stands. There are two absences for the Belgian team, with Hendry and Skov Olsen who are injured.
Attention will be paid this evening to the challenge between Chelsea and Dortmund, which will be played at 21:00 at the Stamford Bridge stadium.
Chelsea lost the first match 1-0, but it was a very beautiful clash to enjoy. The Londoners today will have a higher number of players who will be absent, but not that Dortmund will be left behind. Aubameyang, Badiashile, Armando Broja, Kante, Madueke, Mendy, Mount and Thiago Silva are not available from Chelsea. Adeyemi, Duranville, Kamara, Bauza, Moukoko and Ryerson will not be from the Germans.
Chelsea in the last five challenges have been able to get only one win, which was the last match at the weekend against Leeds, 3 losses and 1 draw. On the other hand, Dortmund has not stopped. The Germans make a collection of victories, where the last loss they received was on December 10, 2022, in the friendly against Fiorentina.
