Santiago Bernabéu hosts a rematch of last year's quarterfinal between Real Madrid and Chelsea, with Los Blancos eager to retrace their path to glory.

Struggling domestically, big-spending Chelsea urgently need an impressive Champions League result - avenging last year's overtime loss to Real Madrid is the perfect opportunity.

Ahead of the clash, Chelsea have released their financials which reveals an increasing turnover of €568.3 million, still trailing Real Madrid's massive €719.8 million.

Substantial losses in 2019, 2021 and now also 2022 exacerbate the FFP concerns overshadowing Chelsea's future, with the current fiscal year unlikely to bring relief.
