O chelsea need to win to advance in the Champions League. This Tuesday, the 7th, the English will have to put all their tradition in the Champions League to try to reverse the negative result of the first leg, which ended with a 1-0 victory for Borussia Dortmund. With that, the Blues will not be able to falter during the confrontation that will be held at Stamford Bridge from 5 pm (Brasília time).
To qualify for the Champions League, Chelsea will need a victory by two or more goals difference to advance directly to the quarterfinals. If they beat Borussia Dortmund by one goal, the English will have extra time and penalties to try to clinch their place in the next phase. That is, the drama can consume Stamford Bridge during the afternoon of this Tuesday, 7.
What plays in Chelsea’s favor for the clash against Borussia Dortmund is the end of a fast that had lasted about six games. With the addition of the defeat to the Germans at Signal Iduna Park and also with the stumbles in the Premier League, the Blues were six games without winning. In all, there were three defeats and three draws, in addition to not scoring goals for three straight matches.
Even that goal drought was ended last Saturday, 4th, at Stamford Bridge. The team faced Leeds and got a 1-0 victory to scare away the negative phase that the Blues are going through in the 2022/23 season. Therefore, Chelsea fans arrive for the Champions League with a little more confidence in a positive result against Borussia.
