Chelsea has no choice but to scale a mountain for its continental survival.
Bayern Munich will host Chelsea on Saturday at Allianz Arena in the second leg of their UEFA Champions League round of 16 series. Bayern leads 3-0 thanks to its resounding win over the Blues on Feb. 25 in the first leg.
Bayern is riding a 17-game winning streak, which helped it secure the Bundesliga (German League) and DFB-Pokal (German Cup) titles following the 2019-20 season restart.
Chelsea finished fourth in the Premier League and runner-up in the FA Cup, but the exertions cost manager Frank Lampard the services of Christian Pulisic and Cesar Azpilicueta due to injury. N’Golo Kante and Willian both might be healthy enough to play but probably won’t, as they only recently have recovered from injury.
Here’s when and how to watch Bayern versus Chelsea:
