Chelsea are hoping to repeat their Champions League success from two years ago this season but face a massive task in beating current holders Real Madrid in the quarter-finals
Chelsea face a huge challenge to progress into the Champions League semi-finals as they prepare for their quarter-final, first-leg against Real Madrid on Wednesday night. The Blues qualified for the last-eight after beating Borussia Dortmund over two legs.
"It will be a tough game but I hope Chelsea will win and pass this test. It is our objective but it is going to be hard because they won the last Champions League.
"We believe in ourselves, in our team-mates and manager. I am happy for Benzema, he is a good example for the Muslim people that we can do Ramadan, score goals and be productive."
"I hope he continues to score, but not on Wednesday!"
On Lampard’s return to Chelsea, Koulibaly added: "We know he is a legend here and he has already trained half of the team. The situation is like this for the moment, but in training he has been saying he will support us until the end and help us to be out of this situation.
"We know it is a difficult situation for everybody, including the club, manager and supporters, but we will give everything to get out of this and make them happy. Our first objective is to win the games and make our supporters happy."
