Chelsea travel to Spain to face Atletico Madrid on Tuesday in a Champions League encounter that perhaps looks less daunting than it once did.
The Blues have come into form since the arrival of Thomas Tuchel, with the German coach yet to taste defeat in any of his seven games in charge, of which they have won five.
Atletico Madrid, on the other hand, have won just one from their last four league games, which has allowed both Barcelona and more prominently Real Madrid a route back into the title race.
Tuchel guided Chelsea to a 1-0 win away to a faltering Tottenham side in his most notable victory to date, but in Deigo Simeone and Atletico Madrid, this is a different proposition altogether.
With the intriguing match-up looming, Sportsmail takes you through the important information you need to know.

Atletico Madrid vs Chelsea: Champions League stats
Chelsea in the Champions League
Though Chelsea will have been delighted to win their Champions League group stage, they will have been less than pleased to find out their opponents as a result.
The group stages were negotiated entirely under the stewardship of Frank Lampard, before he was sacked at the end of January.
The Blues remained unbeaten throughout the group stages, claiming four wins and two draws.
In truth, Chelsea were granted a relatively straightforward group, with Sevilla the only team of note, with the quartet completed by Rennes and FC Krasnodar.
Though drawing in their opening and final group stage fixtures - both in home games, the first to Sevilla and the second to Krasnodar - Chelsea sealed there progression in the mid-games.
Their most notable performance came early in December, when Olivier Giroud scored all four goals as Chelsea beat Sevilla 4-0 away.
Atletico Madrid in the Champions League
Atletico Madrid were certainly drawn into a harder group than their counterparts, with Bayern Munich, RB Salzburg and Lokomotiv Moskow completing the four.
The Spanish giants were typically defence-focused, conceding just the eight goals in six matches.
However, it was in attack where they struggled, scoring only seven goals throughout, with neither Luiz Suarez or Angel Correa netting once.
That translated into draws - three of them, including a double against Lokomotiv Moscow and their home tie against Bayern Munich.
Their most notable fixture was not one to remember, however, as they were thrashed 4-0 away at Bayern in their group stage-opener.
Atletico Madrid vs Chelsea: The odds
Despite Atletico Madrid's drop in form of late, they still come into Tuesday's Champions League clash as the favourites.
Simeone's men are favoured at 17/10 to win, while Chelsea are the underdogs at 19/10, with a draw at 2/1.
Unsurprisingly, La Liga's joint-top scorer Luis Suarez is the favourite open the proceedings at 4/1, though he is tied with team-mate Moussa Dembele at the same price.
As for Chelsea, Tammy Abraham is the favourite to break the deadlock at 11/2.
