All eyes will be on Stamford Bridge when Chelsea and Barcelona face each other in the Champions League last 16, first leg
The Blues have yet to suffer a loss at home in the elite competition this term and Tuesday's football match against Barca will be anything but a walk in the park for the hosts. Antonio Conte's men are likely to adopt a defence-minded approach, but preventing the Catalan giants from scoring is easier said than done. Ernesto Valverde's men are enjoying a season to remember and seeing that Antonio Conte is on the verge of leaving Chelsea, looking at current forms of both the teams, La Liga side looks more promising to win the contest at Stamford Bridge. A man to watch in the away team will be Argentine superstar Leo Messi who has been scoring goals for fun in all competitions this term.
