Chelsea will look to book their spot in the UEFA Women's Champions League quarter-finals when they welcome rock-bottom Real Madrid to Stamford Bridge on Wednesday night.
The Blues kicked off their European campaign with an entertaining 2-2 stalemate against the Spanish side in Madrid, the only point Alberto Toril’s side have earned in the competition so far, as they remain rooted to the bottom of Group D with three losses out of four.
Having collected eight points from four Champions League group stage games, Emma Hayes' side currently sits at the top of the standings with two matches to spare, although Hacken and Paris FC are hot on their heels, waiting to pounce on any slip-ups from the English side.
The Blues lead the way in the Women's Super League, extending their lead at the top to three points with a 3-1 victory over Manchester United over the weekend. Real Madrid, meanwhile, suffered a humbling 4-0 defeat against domestic rivals Barcelona in the Spanish Super Cup semifinal, with Mariona and Salma Paralluelo both bagging braces.
