Key Match For RDM

The UEFA Champions League group stages have been competitive across the board this year. Maybe the most competitive group has been Group E, which contains defending champion Chelsea, Italian champion Juventus, and surprise Ukrainian champion Shakhtar Donetsk. Tied at the top of the group with seven points is Chelsea and Donetsk, while Juventus is close behind with six. Danish side Nordsjaelland is way behind with one point, but will have a say in which teams advance with two matches left to play.

On Tuesday, Chelsea will visit Juventus Stadium in a crucial match for two squads looking to move on to the knockout phase. With just two matches remaining in group stage play, Chelsea has the easier road of the two teams as they will host Nordsjaelland in the final match, while Juventus must travel to Ukraine to face Donetsk. This makes Tuesday’s match a must win for Juventus, while Chelsea would love a result to take some pressure off.

If Chelsea and Donetsk were to win on Tuesday, they would both advance and Juventus would be out of the running. However, if the Italian giants can get a result, or better yet, a win, it would make things very interesting heading into the final match day.
