Substitute Niamh Charles, who has slotted in at right-back to allow Maren Mjelde to move into a centre-back role, does well to hold off Ludmila and win back possession.

The visitors look a bit short of ideas in the final third.

Atletico's Kylie Strom attempts a through-ball from left back, but it rolls straight through to Ann-Katrin Berger.

Still no concerns yet for Chelsea.

Atletico Madrid have been bumped down to fourth in La Liga following Real Madrid's win tonight, and Jose Luiz Sanchez Vera's side are 13 points behind leaders Barcelona.

They're remaining cautious at Kingsmeadow.

It's been 10 minutes since Chelsea were reduced to 10, and the red card has hardly paved the way for an Atletico onslaught.

Chelsea are knocking the ball around relatively comfortably, trying to save energy.

Emma Hayes reacts to Sophie Ingle's red card by bringing on Niamh Charles.

Bethany England's night is cut short.

It's been a brave response from Chelsea.

Sam Kerr tries to pick out Bethany England's run into the box, but the Blues striker suspects she's offside and halts her run. Fran Kirby can't react quick enough to keep the chance alive.

Well then, where do Chelsea go from here?

They have around 75 minutes to stand up to Atletico Madrid with a player less.

This wasn't in Emma Hayes' plan.

Great save!

Ann-Katrin Berger dives low to her right and denies Deyna Castellanos from the penalty spot!

Sophie Ingle is dismissed!

HUGE moment.

Atletico break forward and Sophie Ingle brings down Rasheedat Ajibade in front of goal!

Ex-Chelsea keeper Hedvig Lindahl tips over Pernile Harder's shot on the turn.

It's a corner for Chelsea, but the flag goes up for offside in the aftermath.

Atletico Madrid get forward and Rasheedat Ajibade sends in a low cross from the right, but Fran Kirby is back to do her defensive duties and intercepts.

Two great chances squandered by Harder and Ji in the opening five minutes.

Atletico haven't got going yet and can't live with Chelsea's press.

That's a great chance for the opener!

It's been a very positive start for the hosts, and So-yun Ji really should have made it 1-0 but she slots wide of the far post after being played through on goal.

Chelsea don't waste any time in getting into the Atletico penalty area.

A long ball over the top drops kindly for Pernile Harder, but she goes wide with a first-time attempt.

This should be a good one.

Away we go at Kingsmeadow!

Chelsea and England defender Millie Bright is relishing the challenge of facing Atletico Madrid this evening.

"Any draw at this stage is tough," Bright said. "It's the draw we wanted. You've got to beat the best to be the best and it should be an exciting game over two legs.

"The Champions League is the big trophy that we want. It's a competition we belong in, we've got the quality and the experience and we certainly don't want to be out of it.

"We did a lot of watching and learning last season when we were out of it, so we're keen to prove ourselves."

Both these sides were last in action before the international break, on 14 February.

Chelsea beat Bristol City 5-0 in the WSL while, in Spain, Atletico won 4-1 against Valencia.
