It's really hard, Liverpool is better than Chelsea but Real Madrid have beat Liverpool in both legs. So I'm expecting Real Madrid will win with big margins in the first leg since it will played on Real Madrid's home. Chelsea doesn't need to win, they only need to make a draw at their best. Because if they get beaten with big margins, it will affect every players' psychology and think it's impossible to beat Real Madrid.

Even though Liverpool is also having a pretty tough season so far i still agree that they are still way stronger at the moment than FC Chelsea. Therefore it is definitely correct that Real Madrid is the very big favorite in the upcoming Champions League quarterfinal against Chelsea. That being said, i also don't really think that Real Madrid is that strong. The match up against Liverpool was pretty much decided already after the first leg even though Liverpool had a great start into that game so this was overall pretty weird. After their big lead from the first leg it was obviously very easy for Real Madrid to just get that lead over the line in the second leg.
So Real Madrid is definitely the big favorite, but they are also not extremely strong.

It can be said that all three clubs, both Real and Liverpool and Chelsea, are not playing well in the national championships this season, but Real has been very convincing in the Champions League so far.
This has been the rule for some time, that Real has a hard time winning titles in the Spanish championship, but that's why they win titles in the Champions League, similar to Chelsea. Football is a very unpredictable sport and it is very difficult to predict anything.
Ok, I think we all agree that Real will be the favorite in the match against Chelsea, but let's not forget that this is the Champions League, and that there have been bigger surprises in this competition. Remember Villarreal last season?
