Chelsea v Real Madrid: Visitors boosted by Sergio Ramos return

Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos is fit to face Chelsea in Wednesday's Champions League semi-final second leg.

Real boss Zinedine Zidane said: "We've got our leader and our captain with us. I won't be taking any risks. Sergio is here with us. That means that he's ready to play, that's all it means."

Los Blancos are chasing a 14th Champions League title and their first final appearance since 2018.

For Chelsea, defender Antonio Rudiger is in contention but will have to wear a protective mask.

The centre-back, 28, missed Saturday's win over Fulham after picking up a late injury in the 1-1 draw in Madrid.
