The last two quarter-finalists of the 2020/21 UEFA Champions League season will be determined on Wednesday. The starting position in the two outstanding games is completely different. The clash between Chelsea and Atletico Madrid still promises tension, despite the advantage for the Tuchel team. Bayern’s second second leg against Lazio will probably only have a statistical value, after the defending champion’s sovereign performance in the first leg.
Chelsea vs Atl. Madrid – Soccer Betting Tips – Champions League
In the twelfth competitive game, Chelsea remained unbeaten under Thomas Tuchel, so the German coach was able to equalize Maurizio Sarri’s start record. However, Tuchel should have been only partially satisfied with the appearance at newly promoted Leeds. His players were negligent with the existing chances and could not convert the clear superiority into a victory. The defense, on the other hand, was once again convincing and hardly allowed any chances itself. After Chelsea were by no means stable under Frank Lampard, the Blues have only conceded two goals in the Tuchel era.
A few weeks ago there was little doubt that Atletico Madrid won the Spanish LaLiga title. Meanwhile, doubts are justified that Diego Simeone’s team could still get cold feet. The Rojiblancos have suffered a few setbacks in recent weeks (eight games, only three wins). Although the lead over city rivals Real Madrid is still six points, Barcelona could reduce it to four points with a win in the pending match. The current weaker performance comes at an extremely inconvenient time, because not only the league lead is at stake, but also the premier class. The Spaniards have been extremely strong on the international stage in recent years, as shown by the record of only eight defeats in the last 38 UEFA games. However, the eleven from Madrid have lost five of their last 13 games.
The workforce for Chelsea vs Atl. Madrid

Chelsea vs Atl. Madrid Soccer Betting Tips
A close result in the first leg was not surprising, after all, two teams are facing each other, which are currently (Chelsea) and generally known (Atletico Madrid) due to their strong defense. The Rojiblancos from Madrid undoubtedly have the quality to bring Chelsea to their knees. But history shows that due to the starting position between Chelsea and Atletico Madrid, the tip on the quarter-finals of the Spaniards is not profitable.
