Lille vs Chelsea Preview, Team News and Prediction | Champions League

Chelsea will look to secure a quarter-final berth in the Champions League come Wednesday night with the Blues taking on French side Lille.

Thomas Tuchel’s men, who are in the spotlight off the football pitch for all the Roman Abromivhc ownership drama, picked up a 2-0 win in the first leg of the Last 16 contest.

The west Londoners last faced Newcastle United in league action with Kai Havertz’s 89th-minute strike proving all-important to clinch the three points up for grabs.

Tuchel would hope for his players to return to their very best, especially in the attacking third, with Chelsea not enjoying the best of fortunes of late.
