Predictions

Background

While holders FC Bayern München and Real Madrid CF are familiar faces in the UEFA Champions League semi-finals, and Chelsea FC are also perennial contenders, Club Atlético de Madrid are breaking new ground.

Bayern and Madrid both reached the last four in 2012/13 while Chelsea were last involved the previous campaign. In contrast, Atlético have never played in the UEFA Champions League semi-finals and last got to the European Cup's last four in 1973/74, when they ousted Celtic FC and went on to lose the only final replay in the competition's history – against Bayern.

Atlético are making their fourth European Cup semi-final appearance overall, whereas neighbours Madrid are in their record 25th and have advanced to this stage for the fourth year running. However, they have not featured in the final since lifting their ninth European Cup in 2002, going out to FC Barcelona (2011), Bayern (2012) and Borussia Dortmund (2013).
