Chelsea and Barcelona have met 14 times in the Champions League.They have the same strong track record when they meet.
The Blues won four times, the Blaugrana also four times.Meanwhile, the remaining six matches ended in a draw.
But at the last meeting in the 2017/2018 Champions League it belonged to Barcelona.Of course, Chelsea doesn’t want this disaster to happen again.
2. Hard Duel Full of Red Cards
Of the 14 duels between Chelsea and Barcelona, red cards often graced the matches between them.A tough duel adorned the match between representatives of London and Catalunya.
There were five matches recorded with red cards.The first moment occurred in the 1999/2000 Champions League quarter-finals.The next meeting in the 2004/2005 season also included a red card.
A year later, in the 2005/2006 season, something similar happened.This incident repeated itself in the 2008/2009 season in the 2011/2012 Champions League during Chelsea’s epic victory over Barcelona in the semifinals.
3. Barcelona often fail at Stamford Bridge
Barcelona has a bad record when they visit Stamford Bridge.The Blaugrana have visited Chelsea headquarters seven times.
From that record, Barcelona only won once in the 2005/2006 season.Since then no more maximum results have been achieved.
Therefore, Barcelona wants to end the bad trend when they visit Stamford Bridge.This match is the right moment to make it happen.

Meanwhile, Barcelona only disbursed 27.5 million euros or Rp. 529.6 billion, less than 10 percent of what Chelsea spent.Hansi Flick’s side only recruited two players permanently and one person on loan.
5. Both fierce at home, not yet fierce abroad
Chelsea and Barcelona are both fierce in domestic competition.But they haven’t been fierce overseas.
The London Blue team is now in second place in the Premier League standings with 23 points.Meanwhile Barcelona is also in second place with 31 points.They are only one point behind Real Madrid at the top of the standings.
But Barcelona and Chelsea are not yet in a safe position in the early stages of the Champions League.The Blaugrana are in 11th place while the Blues are in 12th place.Only the top eight clubs have the right to qualify directly for the last 16 of the Champions League.
