Lille vs Chelsea
Lille reached the UEFA Champions League Round of 16 after topping Group G ahead of Red Bull Salzburg, Sevilla and VfL Wolfsburg. Meanwhile, Chelsea progressed to the current stage after finishing runners-up in Group H behind Juventus.
Lille’s form and fortunes have nosedives this season, with the reigning Ligue 1 champions falling off a cliff following Christophe Galtier’s departure last summer. But Les Dogues have shown some improvement in the past month, with the defeat to Chelsea being their only loss in their previous six outings.
As for Chelsea, the last time they lost a game in regulation time was exactly two months ago, with Manchester City handing them a 1-0 defeat at the Etihad. And while the Blues have won their last four games in a row, their performances remain unconvincing, especially in the final third, with Thomas Tuchel’s charges hardly fluent in their forward movement. But issues off the field are likely impacting the west Londoners in more ways than one.

Lille vs Chelsea team news
The hosts are without Renato Sanches due to a thigh injury, after he pulled up during the weekend draw with Saint-Etienne.
Reece James is the big question mark for Chelsea after he picked up a fresh muscle injury last week. Ben Chilwell (knee) is out and both Cesar Azpilicueta (illness) and Callum Hudson-Odoi (foot) are doubts.
Tuchel will have to decide whether he is happy to risk resting in-form forward Kai Havertz, to give Romelu Lukaku a fresh chance up top.

When winning the first leg of a UEFA Champions League knockout tie, Chelsea have gone on to progress from nine of the 11 match-ups. However, their two failings did come when playing the second leg away from home – vs Barcelona in 1999/00 (quarter-final) and Liverpool in 2006/07 (semi-final).
