The first semifinalists of the Champions League will be known this Tuesday. At Stamford Bridge, Chelsea e Real Madrid face each other at 4 pm (Brasília time).
The Spaniards have the upper hand after last week’s 2-0 victory at the Santiago Bernabéu. With that, Real can lose by a goal difference to advance in the competition.
The English, on the other hand, need a triumph by at least three goals apart to advance without a penalty shootout.

The visitors arrive at the best time of the season. Even far from the Spanish title, Real Madrid is in the King’s Cup decision and is aiming for another Champions cup. Chelsea, on the other hand, have a disappointing campaign in Premier League and should only have a chance to return to the Champions next season if they win the title of this edition.
The winner in the confrontation awaits the definition of the duel between Manchester City e Bayern Munchen, who play this Wednesday, in Germany. The English are ahead after winning the first leg 3-0 at the Etihad Stadium.
Naples x Milan
In the other match this Tuesday, Napoli and Milan play for a place in the semifinals, at Estadio Diego Armando Maradona. The visitors are ahead after winning 1-0 at home.
The home team depends on a win by two or more goals to advance. Napoli, close to the Italian title, need to end Milan’s two-game winning streak in the last few games between the teams to continue in the Champions League.
