Watch Chelsea vs Dortmund || UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE 2nd Leg || Full Match coverage
Chelsea will take on Borussia Dortmund in a pivotal Champions League clash tonight as they look to mount a comeback from their 1-0 defeat in Germany last month. The last-16 second-leg tie is a crucial moment for both clubs, with Chelsea desperate for a win and Borussia Dortmund on an impressive 11-game winning streak that sees them as favorites to qualify for the quarter-finals.
The Blues will take some confidence into the game after their win over Leeds at the weekend, but they will have to do without a number of key players. Thiago Silva, Mason Mount, N'Golo Kante, Cesar Azpilicueta, Edouard Mendy and Armando Broja will all be unavailable for the match. However, Reece James has returned to training after missing the Leeds game with a tight hamstring, while Christian Pulisic is also back in contention against his former club.
Meanwhile, Borussia Dortmund may be without first-choice goalkeeper Gregor Kobel, who suffered an injury in the warm-up of Friday's win over RB Leipzig. Donyell Malen is fit for the German side, but first-leg match-winner Karim Adeyemi will be out, along with Youssoufa Moukoko, Julien Duranville and Mateu Morey.
This European showdown is set to be a huge occasion for both clubs, with plenty on the line as they battle it out for a spot in the quarter-finals.
