Chelsea vs Real Madrid: Sergio Aguero predicts who will be winner

Real Madrid and Chelsea will face each other in the quarter-final of the Champions League.

The two sides faced each other in the last two Champions League seasons, and the battle was indeed intense.

Speaking ahead of the quarter-final matches, former Manchester City and Barcelona striker Sergio Aguero, has analysed the game.

Aguero is expecting a tough battle, but he believes Real Madrid will edge the tie.

Aguero told Stake: “Graham Potter hasn’t managed Chelsea for that much time, has he? And he’s been there during a time with many players coming and going, lots of high-profile injuries.

“Going straight into major competitions isn’t what one would advise. He needs more time to get great results. That’s what we saw during his time at Brighton, and he’ll surely find a way to repeat that success at Chelsea.

“I can’t just ignore the past and present of Real Madrid – they are the likely winners of this tie.

“But it isn’t over until we see how the games play out. Sometimes, the most minor thing can make a world of difference.

“Granted, Madrid is tried and true in these kinds of matches. Their history – and recent showings – prove as much. They’ll be the toughest of oppositions.

“That said, Chelsea has bolstered their squad with fantastic players. They have some level of adaptation to do, that may trip them up. But I wouldn’t expect that to make it an easy match for Real Madrid. Still, Madrid’s got the edge here.”
