Chelsea vs Barcelona Match Overview – 25.11.2025

Chelsea hosts Barcelona at the Stamford Bridge in London in a fixture from the Champions League’s league stage on Tuesday night. This is one of the big derbies in the competition this week so let’s preview it in our Football betting tips from professional punters.

Chelsea are the current world champions, but this does not guarantee them the win here. Enzo Maresca’s team is facing the current champions of Spain, so it’s a huge game for the Londoners. They prepared for it with a 2-0 win against Burnley in the Premier League on Saturday. Pedro Neto and Enzo Fernandez scored for the Blues.

Barcelona on the other hand also scored a win in their latest match. Los Cules faced Athletic Bilbao at the Spotify Camp Nou and scored four times – 4-0. Ferran Torres shined with a brace while Robert Lewandowski and Fermin Lopez scored as well.

Chelsea News & Analysis

The absence of Cole Palmer is the biggest issue for Chelsea’s manager Enzo Maresca. The influential attacking midfielder injured himself at home so he won’t be playing against Barca.

If Maresca is thinking about putting an attacking team against Barcelona, Liam Delap and Joao Pedro could start together on Tuesday night. Pedro Neto and Jamie Gittens can support from the wings, but the Brazilian wonderkid Estevao is also a strong contender for a place in the line-up.

Moises Caicedo could return in midfield, partnering Enzo Fernandez. The Colombian international was benched against Burnley, but Maresca could put him in the line-up.

Barcelona News & Analysis

Barcelona played a solid game against Athletic Bilbao on Saturday. Inspired by their return to the Spotify Camp Nou, Hansi Flick’s boys didn’t leave any chances to the opposition.

For Hansi Flick the biggest problem remains the absence of Pedri – his best midfielder. The Spanish international is still recovering from his latest injury. At the same time Frenkie de Jong is expected to return after being suspended against Bilbao.

Marcus Rashford could return in the starting eleven as well. The English international had a flu and missed the game against Athletic, but he’s back to action now.
