Chelsea will be aiming to reach the Champions League quarter-finals for the first time since 2014 this evening and are in a good position to do so against Atletico Madrid. Thomas Tuchel has a few big decisions to make on his squad and Express Sport takes a look at what team the Chelsea boss could go with.
Kepa Arrizabalaga had been given a chance to prove himself early on in Tuchel's tenure with a surprise appearance against Newcastle in the Premier League.
While the Spaniard kept a clean sheet, Mendy has returned between the sticks and it looks unlikely to change.
Chelsea have kept five consecutive clean sheets with Mendy often playing a part to help build Chelsea's impressive defensive record.
The 29-year-old will need to be at his best again tonight with Diego Simeone's side needing to score.
Thiago Silva has been out of action due to a thigh injury recently and could well be fit to put himself in contention to start.
But Tuchel has trusted the partnership of Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen in the Brazilian's absence and it may be risky breaking that up with the pair looking strong.
Marcos Alonso has been given a new lease of life under Tuchel and may well be preferred to Ben Chilwell once again.
But Cesar Azpilicueta will be expected to start on the right due to his experience at this level.
Two enforced changes here with both Jorginho and Mason Mount being suspended for the second leg.
Mateo Kovacic is the obvious replacement for Jorginho to play alongside N'Golo Kante.
But it's in the position slightly further forward where Tuchel as a few options available.
Hakim Ziyech can play in that role but Kai Havertz has shown signs that he's discovering his best form again and looks set to start tonight.
