(from 9:00 p.m.) where he works as a local, but more than 3,000 km from Madrid.

The match is played in Romania, at the National Arena in Bucharest, due to the restrictions of the Spanish government to combat the pandemic, which prevent the entry of travelers from the United Kingdom.

"We play at home!", Proclaimed with irony Simeone, who is confident that his team will forget the latest setbacks in the League that have allowed Madrid to lie in wait for the undeniable leader until then.

The Argentine will not be able to count on several of his important men in gangs such as Trippier, Vrsaljko and Carrasco, in addition to Giménez and Héctor Herrera.

The reference of the rojiblancos, Luis Suárez, has not yet made his debut in the Champions League with his new team, but his 16 goals in the League are enough argument so that the Chelsea defenders should not lose track of him.

Tuchel, for his part, only has the loss of Thiago Silva.

The Brazilian was being one of the important men in the new defense of three centrals proposed by the German coach.

Since their arrival after Lampard's dismissal, the Londoners have not lost a game, with two draws and five wins.

The

blues
