Lille v Chelsea Preview – Champions League 2021-22
- Date: Wednesday, 16 March, 2022
- Kick-off: 8pm, GMT
- Venue: Stade Pierre-Mauroy, Lille, France
- First leg score: Chelsea 2-0 Lille
French champions Lille take on Chelsea at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy in the 2nd leg of their Champions League last 16 tie on Wednesday night. Lille are currently 6th in Ligue 1, but they’ve lacked consistency this term and are struggling to secure European football for next season.
The defending European champions hold a two-goal advantage from the 1st leg, but they are suddenly rudderless and look potentially vulnerable now that the club’s future is so uncertain.
