Head coach Thomas Tuchel has suggested that his Chelsea squad have found it easy to reset after Saturday's 4-1 defeat at home to Brentford.
Despite taking the lead early in the second half at Stamford Bridge, the Blues were on the receiving end of their biggest reverse of the campaign.
With that result coming just four days ahead of facing Real Madrid in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final, it did not represent ideal preparation, but Tuchel feels that losing to the Bees will not negatively affect his players on Wednesday night.
Speaking to reporters at a press conference, Tuchel said: "We had a day off which was maybe important to digest it. We talked about it but no special team talk. We spoke openly about it in a debrief which is normal. We set new targets which is normal in sports.
"We did not like what happened, it was very untypical for us and consider it the exception to the rule. We were open to ourselves and allowed ourselves to focus on the match tomorrow because it's what is needed."
Chelsea had won 12 of their previous 13 games ahead of Saturday's fixture, the only disappointment coming in the penalty-shootout defeat to Liverpool in the EFL Cup final.
