Champions League quarter-final predictions: Real Madrid v Chelsea FC
Without a doubt, the most interesting match (especially for the Spanish) in the Champions League quarterfinal forecasts. But it is a particularly relevant match when this tie has taken place in three consecutive editions. In 2020/21, Chelsea eliminated Madrid in the semis, 1-1 and 2-0, while Madrid did the same in the quarterfinals after extra time in the previous edition (1-3 in each game). 4 goals on average per game in the last round, and 2 in the previous one. In the round of 16, Madrid eliminated Liverpool with 2-5 and 1-0, while Chelsea did it by the minimum with 1-0 and 2-0 against Borussia.
Madrid is clearly a favourite, since it comes 2nd in the Spanish League, while Chelsea does not exceed the middle table in the Premier.

Manchester City vs Bayern Munich
The bets on the quarterfinals of the Champions League get difficult. With the permission of Napoli, both favorites to not only go through the round, but also to win the competition. In this way, the game becomes an advanced final. Both teams come second in their competition, fighting for an assault on first place. City comfortably reached the quarterfinals with an impressive 7-0 return against Leipzig, while Bayern have knocked out a powerful rival like PSG, with 2-0 and 1-0 in the round of 16. Proof of the equality of this match is that in the last 5 editions there have been victories by the minimum, 4 for City and 1 for Bayern.
Let’s go with the final early!
- City win @1.90
- City win and +2.5 goals @2.60
- City win conceding @3.30
Champions quarter bets: Benfica vs Inter Milan
Speaking of forecasts for the quarterfinals of the Champions League even, Benfica Inter arrives, but at the other end of the scale. Without a doubt, neither of them are favorites to stand out in the competition, but they arrive with a very similar bellows to the game. Very complex forecasts, since they have not seen each other since 2003/04 in the Europa League, and in the Champions League since the 1960s. Inter went to the quarterfinals with a 1-0 win in the first leg and a 0-0 win against Porto, while the outstanding leader of the Portuguese League made it comfortable, with a 7-1 aggregate against Bruges.
- Benfica win at home @2.10
- Inter qualify @1.85
- Both do not score @1.72
AC Milan vs SSC Napoli
Italian derby in the Champions League quarterfinal predictions. First meeting in international competition, but the Serie A statistics already make things difficult for the locals: Napoli have achieved 3 straight victories by the minimum in Meazza… Milan hasn’t won at home against Napoli since 2014/15! Napoli went overboard with a 0-2 and 3-0 against Einratch, while with a 1-0 aggregate Milan did the same against Tottenham. All the statistics for this match give favoritism to Napoli, also being a game with few goals.
- Napoli win @2.25
- Napoli qualify @1.40
- Napoli and under 3.5 goals @2.87
The fun part of these quarters is that no game is already decided at the outset. The Italian clash is the one in which there is a clear favorite to go through, while we find two very even heats. For their part, Madrid are slightly favorites over Chelsea, but by a relatively narrow margin. Who do you think will go to the semis?
COMBINED: City, Inter, Napoli and Madrid qualify @7.32
Betting on European competitions is very complex. The fact that they are teams that face each other every once in a while and play different leagues, with which the yardstick is not the same, makes everything more uncertain. All this together with the fact of risking everything in a match is what gives these bets excitement.
