Moisés Caicedo and Chelsea face Lamine Yamal and Barcelona in the League Phase of the 2025-26 UEFA Champions League on Tuesday at Stamford Bridge.
How to Watch Chelsea vs Barcelona
Chelsea enters Stamford Bridge with momentum. Under Enzo Maresca, they've shown real maturity, blending a youthful squad with discipline. Maresca has stressed the importance of aggression, especially without the ball, but also wants balance so they're not overly exposed to Barca's counterattacks. Defensively, they might shift things a little as Reece James could adapt to a more flexible shape to help neutralize Barcelona's high line. At home, Chelsea has been strong in Europe, and they'll be targeting a result that gives them a real shot at advancing.
On the other side, Barcelona under Hansi Flick remains a significant threat. Their attacking firepower is dangerous, with Robert Lewandowski leading the line, and, as always, the player to watch is young talent Lamine Yamal, who can change the game in an instant. But they're not without concerns as defensive lapses have crept in, and they haven't kept a clean sheet in this Champions League campaign. Chelsea could exploit that if they stay disciplined and make the most of transitions.
This is a great Champions League match that you will not want to miss; make sure to tune in and catch all the action.
