Preview: Benfica vs. Chelsea

Chelsea duo David Luiz and Ramires will return to former club Benfica on Tuesday evening as the two teams prepare to battle it out for a place in the semi-final of the Champions League.

Both are expected to start for the Blues, who are likely to start Didier Drogba up front in favour of Fernando Torres.

Hosts Benfica are likely to bench veteran Argentine midfielder Pablo Aimar, with Nicolas Gaitan, Axel Witsel and Bruno Cesar due to start in the Portuguese club's engine room.

Chelsea will be looking to become the first team to win at Benfica's Estadio da Luz in the Champions League this season. In fact, FC Porto are the only side to come away from Lisbon with a victory.

However, Roberto Di Matteo's side head into the tie having not won away from home in the Champions League this campaign.
