Real Madrid vs Chelsea Score Prediction
Chelsea are very shaky at the back, whereas Real Madrid have welcomed back every attacker except Kylian Mbappe and Jude Bellingham. A Brazilian front three for Real Madrid will run riot against Maresca's defence, so I will go with an optimistic Real Madrid 4-1 Chelsea.
