RB Leipzig vs Real Madrid Betting Odds

Real Madrid is the favorite sitting at -120 while RB Leipzig is the underdog sitting at +210. The total sits at 2.5 goals with the over paying out at -160.

RB Leipzig Betting Preview

RB Leipzig finished in second place in Group G having picked up 12 points. On December 13th, RB Leipzig faced off against Young Boys in the UEFA Champions League and they were able to secure the 2-1 victory. They had 54 percent of the possession and two shots on target, but both shots made it in the back of the net. RB Leipzig is pretty healthy heading into this game, but they could be missing one key player. Amadou Haidara missed the last game with a knee injury and it’s unclear if he’s going to be able to go in this game. If he can’t go that is a big loss. 

Real Madrid Betting Preview

Real Madrid finished in 1st place in Group C having picked up 18 points. On December 12th, Real Madrid faced off against Union Berlin and they were able to secure the 3-2 victory. Last Saturday, Real Madrid faced off against Girona and they were able to secure a 4-0 victory. Jude Bellingham had a strong game scoring in the 34th and 54th minute. Bellingham was hurt in the last game and it’s unclear if he can go in this game. Bellingham scored two g in toalshe last Champions League game and not having him would really hurt. 

RB Leipzig vs Real Madrid Betting Prediction 

 Assuming that Real Madrid isn’t going to have Bellingham, I think the play here is with RB Leipizig. Real Madrid isn’t going to have many quality scoring chances and finding the back of the net is going to be tough here. RB Leipzig might not exactly run up the score, but they are going to score at least one goal, and that is going to be the difference here. It might not be enough to win but it’s going to be enough to at least pay to a draw. Back RB Leipzig +0.5 to cash here.

Real Madrid vs Liverpool Previous Matchup

Real Madrid and Liverpool faced off on February 21st, and it was one of the more entertaining games. Liverpool opened up the scoring with two goals in the first 14th minutes, and they looked to be in good shape. The defense really struggled though, and they ended giving up five goals between 21st and 67th minute. 

Real Madrid Betting Preview

Real Madrid is in good shape to move onto the next round, and on Saturday they were able to come away with a victory. They fell behind n the 8th minute, but they bounced back and scored three goals on the way to the victory. Real Madrid had 71 percent of the possession and seven shots on target. Benzema missed the last game, but he’s back now and should get the start in this game. Antonio Rüdiger could move into the starting lineup in this game, and if he does start, they need him to be good here. 

Liverpool Betting Preview

On the other side of this matchup is Liverpool, who have struggled heading into this game, and they are in bad shape in this game in terms of advancing. On Saturday, against AFC Bournemouth, Liverpool was defeated 1-0. They gave up a goal in the 28th minute, and that was the difference as they were defeated. Luis Diaz, Thiago Alcântara, Calvin Ramsay, and Joe Gomez are all hurt, and they aren’t going to be able to go in this game. Jordan Henderson is expected to get the start in this game. 

Shane’s Free Pick

There is going to be no shortage of goal scoring in this game. Liverpool’s defense was an issue in the first game, and it’s going to let them down again in this game. I do expect their offense is going to score to the back of the net a couple of times, though, and this game is going to be higher scoring. Back the over to cash here.

Liverpool vs Real Madrid Odds

Liverpool currently sits as the favorite sitting at +130 while Real Madrid sits as the underdog sitting at +200. The total in this game sits at 2.5 goals with the over paying out -145 if it hits. Make sure to check out the preview for Tuesday’s game between Eintracht Frankfurt and Napoli. 

Liverpool Betting Preview

Liverpool finished in second place in the standings having picked up 15 points. On Saturday against Newcastle, Liverpool played a good game, and they ended up winning 2-0. Darwin Nunez scored in the 10th minute and Cody Gakpo scored in the 17th place, Liverpool had 63 percent of the possession and seven shots on target. Darwin Nunez suffered a shoulder injury against Newcastle and it looked bad when it happened. A few days later though, and there is a chance that he could be able to go in this game, it just depends on how much pain he’s able to go through. Luis Diaz, Ibrahima Konate, Thiago Alcantara and Calvin Ramsay are all dealing with injuries and they aren’t going to be able to go in this game. 

Real Madrid Betting Preview

On the other side of this matchup is Real Madrid who finished in 1st place in Group F picking up 13 points. On Saturday Real Madrid faced off against Osasuna and they scored two goals on the way to victory. Federico Valverde scored in the 78th minute and Marco Asensio scored in the 92nd minute. Real Madrid had 53 percent of the possession and six shots on target. Karim Benzema is dealing with some muscle injuries and he had to miss the last game. It’s unclear heading into this game if he’s going to be able to go, but if he can’t go that is going to be a big loss. 

Shane’s Free Pick

Even if Nunez isn’t able to go for Liverpool, I still trust them to find success in this game. Benzema isn’t going to be 100 percent if he does play, and Real Madrid isn’t going to have as many quality scoring chances as they would like. Look for Liverpool to score two or three goals here and that is going to be enough to get the job done. Back Liverpool on the money line to cash.

Real Madrid still has something to play for in this game and I expect they are going to find success in this game. Look for Real Madrid to get the offense going early, and this should be a pretty easy victory. I expect Real Madrid to score at least three goals here. Back Real Madrid -1.5 to cash.

When these two teams faced off on September 14th it was Real Madrid that was able to secure the 2-0 victory. It actually wasn’t a very dominant game, but two goals after the 80th minute was enough to secure the 2-0 victory. Both teams had three shots on goal, while Real Madrid had 53 percent of the possession. Even though the final score was 2-0 the game was a lot closer than that/ 

Real Madrid comes into this game sitting in 1st place in the group having picked up 10 points. Real Madrid’s last Champions League game came against Shakhtar Donetsk on October 11th and the game ended in a 1-1 draw. In the last game they faced off against Sevilla and Real Madrid secured a 3-1 victory. Luka Modrić scored in the 5th minute to open up the scoring and there were two goals scored after the 79th minute and that led to the victory. Real Madrid had six shots on target and 56 percent of the possession. Karim Benzema is dealing with fatigue, and he won’t be able to go in this game. 

On the other side of this matchup is RB Leipzig who sits in 2nd place in the group having picked up six points. On October 11th RB Leipzig faced off against Celtic, and they were able to secure the 2-0 victory. Timo Werner scored in the 75th minute and Emil Foresberg added another goal in the 84th minute. RB Leipzig had 59 percent of the possession and five shots on target. Lukas Klostermann, Marcel Halstenberg, Konrad Laimer, and Peter Gulacsi are all dealing with injuries and won’t be able to go in this game. In this game, the offense needs to find a way to score the first goal. 

It’s hard at this point to bet against Real Madrid, and I’m not going to do it. Look for RB Leipzig to struggle to score against Real Madrid and that is going to be the difference as Real Madrid gets the job done. Real Madrid might not score more than a goal, but they are going to get the job done. Back Real Madrid on the money line.

When these two teams last faced off last Wednesday, it was Real Madrid that were able to secure the 2-1 victory. Rodrygo scored the goal in the 13th minute and Vini Jr scored a goal in the 28th minute for Real Madrid. Oleksandr Zubkov scored a goal in the 39th minute to make it a game again, but it wasn’t enough in the 2-1 loss. Real Madrid had 60 percent of the possession and 14 shots on target, while Shakhtar finished with three shots on target and 40 percent of the possession. 

Real Madrid comes into this game sitting 1st place in the standings having picked up nine points. On October 8th, Real Madrid face off against Getafe and that was a 1-0 victory. Eder Militao scored a goal in the 3rd minute, and the defense locked down after that on the way to the victory. Real Madrid had 66 percent of the possession and four shots on target. Militao is dealing with muscle spasms, and it doesn’t look like he’s going to be able to go in this game. Thibaut Courtois is also dealing with a back problem, and it’s expected that he’s not going to be able to go in this game. 

On the other side of this matchup is Shakhtar Donetsk, who sits in second place in the standings having picked up four points. Shakhtar Donetsk was expected to face off against Lviv in the last game, but the game was postponed. With the layoff, it looks like it will be mostly the same crew that played in the last game that will get the start here. Viktor Kornienko is dealing with a knee injury, and he won’t be able to go in this game. 

The last time these two teams played, there were three goals scored, and I expect much of the same here. I don’t trust this Shakhtar Donetsk defense, but they have a good offense and I expect they will score at least a goal here. This game is going to finish 2-1 or 2-2 and the over is going to cash.

Real Madrid comes into this game sitting in 1st place in the group having picked up six points. The last game in the Champions League came against RB Leipzig and in that game, they secured a 2-0 victory. The two goals for Real Madrid came after the 80th minute, and in this game, they need to try to get the offense going earlier. On Sunday, Real Madrid played against Osasuna, and that game ended in a 1-1 draw. Luka Modrić is expected to be back in the lineup in this game, and that should be a big boost for the team. 

On the other side of this matchup is Shakhtar Donetsk, and they sit in second place in the group having picked up four points. Their last UEFA Champions League game was against Celtic, and that game ended in a 1-1 draw. They fell behind early, but it was a goal in the 29th minute that allowed them to pick up a point. Shakhtar had only 43 percent of the possession and two shots on goal. The last game for them came on Saturday, and in that game, they scored six goals on the way to an easy victory. Shakhtar Donetsk is in pretty good shape heading into this game with the only player missing, Viktor Kornienko. He is dealing with a serious knee injury, and he won’t be back for a while. 

Real Madrid on paper is probably the better team, but this is a scrappy team in Shakhtar Donetsk. They are basically fully healthy, and their defense is going to be very strong in this game. It might not be enough for them to secure a win, but they are going to at least get to a draw. Back Shakhtar Donetsk +0.5.

Real Madrid comes into this game sitting in 1st place in Group F having picked three points. Real Madrid faced off against Celtic in the first game of the Champions League, and they were able to win that game 3-0. Real Madrid didn’t score until the 56th minute, but they scored another two goals after that first goal. Real Madrid had six shots on goal and 65 percent of the possession. Real Madrid is pretty healthy coming into this game, but they will be without Karim Benzema and Eder Militao who are both dealing with injuries. Lucas Vazquez is also dealing with a thigh injury and isn’t expected to be able to go in this game. 

On the other side of this matchup is RB Leipzig who sits in 3rd place in the standings having picked up zero points. RB Leipzig’s first game was against Shakhtar Donetsk, and they looked awful in that game. The defense gave up four goals and that led to the 4-1 defeat. They had 68 percent of the possession but only managed two shots on goal and that led to the defeat. Leipzig’s last game came against Dortmund and that led to the 3-0 victory. RB Leipzig is pretty healthy coming into this game, but they will be without Lukas Klostermann and Dani Olmo who are both dealing with injuries. If Leipzig wants to get the job done, they are going to need to be the difference better. 

RB Leipzig really looked impressive in the last game against Dortmund, scoring three goals, and I expect they are going to continue the offensive success in this game. Real Madrid will also find a way to score a couple of goals, and this game is going to be higher scoring. Back the over 3.5 to cash here.

Celtic FC has played really well to start the season, and they currently sit in 1st place in the Scottish Premiership having picked up 18 points in six games. In the last game against the Rangers, they again had a dominant game, putting up four goals on the way to an easy victory. Liel Abada scored a goal in the 8th minute and added another in the 40th. They ended the game with only 45 percent of the possession, but six shots on target, and the victory. Celtic on the season has scored 25 goals, while their defense has given up only one goal. In this game, it’s going to be important that the defense continues to play well. Kyogo Furuhashi left the last game against the Rangers with a shoulder injury, and it’s unclear if he’s going to be able to go in this game. Carl Starfelt suffered a knee injury and won’t be available to go in this game. 

On the other side of this matchup is Real Madrid who sits in 1st place in La Liga having picked up 12 points so far this season. Real Madrid played against Real Betis on Saturday, and the goal-scoring started early. They scored a goal in the 9th minute and added another one in the 65th minute to win the game. Real Madrid has scored 11 goals this season, while their defense has given up four goals. Karim Benzema and Vinicius Júnior have both scored three goals so far this season. Jesus Vallejo and Alvaro Odriozola are both hurt for Real Madrid, and they won’t be able to go in this game. 

The Celtic defense has been lights out heading into this game, and I expect they are going to do everything in their power to lock down the Real Madrid offense here. It might not be enough to secure the victory, but it’s going to be enough to keep this game close. Back the Celtic +0.5 to cash.

Liverpool is one of the best teams in the world, definitely one of the most consistent teams, and they haven’t lost a game since early March. Liverpool was outstanding defensively for most of the season, but they have become a bit sloppy as of late, and they have conceded at least 1 goal in each of their last 4 EPL games. In the last round of the EPL, Liverpool needed a win against Wolverhampton, which they get, but they also need for Manchester City not to win their game, which unfortunately they didn’t get. In the Champions League and the EPL, Salah is the leading goalscorer for Liverpool with 8 goals, while Firmino and Mane added 5 goals each. Alexander-Arnold and Robertson have added 3 assists each. There are no injuries or suspensions in Liverpool, but there have been some doubtful players. As I’ve mentioned, Liverpool is one of the best teams in the world, on both ends, and they are looking for payback after Real Madrid beat them in the finals last time.

Real Madrid has been the best team in LaLiga this season, they have been one of the most consistent teams in Europe, and they are deservedly in the finals. Real Madrid has had an incredibly tough schedule in the Champions League, and they had to go through PSG, Chelsea, and Manchester City to reach the finals, and that is not an easy task. In their last 2 LaLiga, Real Madrid has 2 draws, but that doesn’t really matter because their lineups were mixed, and they had nothing to play for. As far as the Champions League goes, Benzema has scored 15 goals, while in LaLiga he scored another 27 goals, and this was the best season of his career. Vinicius has been an excellent support player to Benzema with 20 goals overall, and 16 assists. There are no injuries or suspensions in Real Madrid. With Ancelotti at the helm, and with a perfect mix of youth and experience, this is one of the best Real Madrid teams over the last 15 years, if not the best.

Both of these teams deserved to be here, and while Liverpool had a tougher group stage, Real Madrid had a lot harder knockout stage. In the previous meetings, Real Madrid was dominant, and as I’ve mentioned, they won the finals in 2018. I think this game will be a lot different than that one, mostly because Liverpool is the better team, and they are in great form. Real Madrid has had 2 legs in every knockout game, but this is the finals, and it’s only one game.

Real Madrid is still in good form, they have only 1 loss in their last 5 games, and they need to stay in good form because of that Champions League game. There will be about a week in between this game and the Champions League finals, which means Real will have plenty of time to recuperate. As I’ve mentioned, Real Madrid secured the title a while ago, and they were very dominant this season. Benzema has been absolutely outstanding this season for Real Madrid with 27 goals and 12 assists, while Vinicius added 17 goals and 10 assists. Real Madrid has a couple of injuries, but they should be healthy until next week. I think we will see a bit of a shuffled lineup from Real Madrid here, and that is ok because there is always the risk of an injury.

Betis has also been in decent form lately, and they are on a 2-game winning streak, but it wasn’t enough for them to qualify for the Champions League. Even though Betis could still catchup up to Sevilla, the first tiebreaker in LaLiga is head-to-head results between the team in question, which means Sevilla will be going through. Betis will end this season in 5^th or 6^th place, but either one will get them to the Europa League. Betis has been scoring a lot of goals this season, 62 in total, and Juanmi is their leading goalscorer with 16 goals. Iglesias added 10 goals, while Fekir has 8 assists. Betis also has a few injuries, but it doesn’t really matter. I think Betis is a great team with a solid defense and a great offense, but they have had too many of those dry spells this season, and that will cost them the Champions League spot. If Betis can keep most of their players, and if they can sign some good players in the offseason, I think we can expect them in the competition for Europe, and that will be their main goal for next season.

With neither team needing anything here, I would give a slight advantage to Betis, but I will stay away from the sides. I think we see a great game here, and I think we will see a lot of chances, which is why I will take the goals.

Real has secured the LaLiga title a couple of weeks ago, and their main focus right now is the Champions League and that clash against Liverpool at the end of the month. In their last LaLiga game, Real was playing against Atletico Madrid, and they ended up losing that matchup, but it didn’t hurt one bit. I keep mentioning Benzema, and how could I not since he has been the soul of this Real Madrid team. Benzema has 26 goals and 10 assists so far this season, and he will probably be in the lineup for this game since he was on the bench in the last one. Vinicius has added 14 goals and 9 assists. The injury list is very long for Real Madrid, and I think that in this game we can expect a mixed lineup as well. Real Madrid was losing a bunch of times this season, but they kept coming back, and they are now in the Champions League finals against Liverpool, and we will see if they can win it.

Levante has been playing decent football as of late, but it’s too little too late. With only 29 points, Levante is in the last place in the standings, and even though they could theoretically escape the relegation, it would be equal to a miracle if they do. Levante also has a few injuries, and that will not help them stay in the league. Morales is the leading goalscorer for Levante with 12 goals, while De Frutos has added 7 assists, but he is injured. I think Levante got lucky to play against Real Madrid when they don’t need absolutely anything from this game, but this will still be a very hard game for them. As I’ve mentioned, it will take a miracle to get Levante out of the relegation zone, but those happen every now and then.

Real Madrid has lost only 1 home game this season, and it’s hard to imagine this will be a second one. Levante is desperate for a win, yes, but that doesn’t mean they will get it. I will go with goals in this one.

Atletico has won only 1 of their last 6 games, and that was against Espanyol. Despite their bad form, Atletico is in the Champions League spot, in 4^th place with 61 points, but Betis is behind them with only 3 points less. Defensively, Atletico has been very bad this season, and that is the main reason for their struggles, while their offense has been decent with 59 scored goals so far. Correa and Suarez have each scored 11 goals for Atletico so far this season, while Carrasco, Correa, and Lemar have added 5 assists each. It seems there is no easy game for Atletico this season, and it certainly won’t be easy for them to secure that Champions League spot, but they are good enough to do it.

Real Madrid is on fire, and what they are doing in the Champions League has been amazing. Real Madrid was on the brink of the elimination from the Champions League, but with 2 scored goals in the 90^th minute, they have gotten to the overtime. Real was awarded a penalty kick in the overtime, and they scored, which was enough for them to qualify for the finals. Real Madrid has also won LaLiga this season, and they were really dominant, and they deserved the title. Mostly thanks to Benzema who scored 26 goals and added 10 assists, Real Madrid has been one of the best teams in the world this season. Vinicius has added 14 goals and 9 assists. I think Real Might give a rest to some of their players, but with this being such a big matchup, I think they will go for the win just to spite Atletico Madrid. It has been an amazing season for Real Madrid, but they have one more big game ahead, and that is the Champions League finals against Liverpool.

It’s been a few years since Atletico has beaten Real Madrid at home, and even though they are favorites here, I’m not sure they can get a win. Real Madrid is in great form, and they will certainly score a goal here. I’m staying away from sides, and I will take the goals.

Real Madrid has been winning a lot of games this season, and in their last 8 games, they have 6 wins and 2 losses. As I’ve mentioned, Real Madrid has secured the LaLiga title by beating Espanyol this past weekend, and they deserved it. In the first leg of this matchup, Real Madrid has lost 4-3, but those 3 goals they have scored will be a huge help in this game. Real Madrid is playing well, they are scoring a lot of goals, and Benzema has been on fire this season with over 40 scored goals. In the Champions League alone, Benzema has scored 14 goals, while Vinicius has added 3 goals and 6 assists. Real Madrid is pretty much a complete team with a lot of experience and young talent, but their defense has been a bit sloppy lately, and that could be a problem for them here.

City is now on a 4-game winning streak, while in their last game they have destroyed Leeds on the road in the EPL. The title race is really tense in the EPL this season, but Manchester City is still in the lead, but only by a point. In that first leg, City was dominant, they have created chances and scored goals, but they have conceded from their own mistakes. Mahrez is the leading goalscorer for City with 6 scored goals, while Jesus has added 4 goals. Concelo and De Bruyne have added 3 assists so far this season. So far in the Champions League, City has been dominant and pretty sure of themselves, but now it’s the crucial time for them. Manchester City is coming into this game with the advantage, but they are facing a strong Real Madrid team that is scoring a lot of goals. City will try to dominate this game, and I think they will, but they will need to be on top of their defense otherwise they won’t be qualifying for the finals this season.

The trends are pretty even in this matchup, and both teams are in great form. The first leg was outstanding, we saw a lot of goals, and I think this game will be the same. I think this game could go either way, but I hope it goes City’s way. I’m taking goals in this one.

Real Madrid is on a 4-game winning streak in LaLiga, and even though they lost in the Champions League, they got a good result. The final score was 4-3 in favor of Manchester City, but it could have been a lot worse. In LaLiga, Real Madrid is at the top, they need only 1 point to secure the title, but even a loss could go their way if Sevilla and Barcelona don’t win their games. Benzema of course is the leading goalscorer for Real Madrid with 2 goals, but I suspect he might get a break here because they are playing in the Champions League again next week. A few players are injured for Real Madrid, but they have been injured for a while or they haven’t played a lot this season. Overall, a very good season for Real Madrid, and even if they get knocked out of the Champions League, they will win a trophy this season, the LaLiga one.

Espanyol has 3 losses in their last 4 games, but the good news is they will be staying in the league for at least another season. Espanyol is now in 13^th place with 39 points, and overall, their season has been a success. Espanyol might have not scored a lot of goals, 37 in 33 games so far, but their defense was decent with 45 conceded goals, and as a newcomer, that is not bad at all. Espanyol has been hot and cold this season, which was expected, but they have enough to stay in LaLiga, which was their only goal this season. Regano is the only injured player for Espanyol at the moment. De Tomas is Espanyol’s leading goalscorer with 15 goals, while Darder has added 8 assists. There isn’t much to say about Espanyol, except if they want to do something more in LaLiga next season, they will need to have more offense, but if the bottom half of the table is enough for them, they are good as is.

The trends are heavily on Real’s side, and they have lost only 1 home game this season. Espanyol has only 1 win on the road, and they are not doing well at the moment. I’m going with Real Madrid in this one.

City is now on a 2-game winning streak, and in their latest game, they have just destroyed Watford. Thanks to that win, City has remained at the top of the table in the EPL. In the previous stage of the Champions League, City has advanced thanks to the first leg win, but it was tight, and they had to fight for their spot in the semifinals. Mahrez is still the leading goalscorer for City in the Champions League with 6 goals, while Jesus and Sterling have added 3 goals each. There are no injuries in City, but Concelo is suspended because of the yellow cards. City has been incredibly consistent this season, they have scored a lot of goals this season, and they are dominant pretty much against any team out there. Yes, City would like to win the EPL, but their ultimate goal is the Champions League, and I think they will do it.

Real Madrid has won 5 of their last 6 games, while their only loss was against Chelsea in the second leg of the quarterfinals, but they still advanced to the semifinals. In LaLiga, Real Madrid is now at the top, they have 15 points advantage over Barcelona, and they need just a point to secure that title. Real Madrid was really lucky against Chelsea because after destroying them on the road, Chelsea has done the same to Real Madrid in the second leg, but Real Madrid was more focused on the defensive end. Benzema is the leading goalscorer for Real Madrid with 12 goals, while Vinicius has added 6 assists. Jovic, Hazard, and Mariano are all injured, but they haven’t been playing much at all this season. Real Madrid will need a stellar defense in this game, and on top of that, Real Madrid will need to be efficient in the attacking end because I’m not sure how many chances they will get to score a goal.

There have been a lot of different results in this matchup, but City has never been so dominant as they are right now. I think this will be a great game, and Real Madrid might even score, but I see Manchester City getting a win. City is the home team here, and they need to get a positive result here.

Osasuna has won 4 of their last 6 games, while they are now on a 2-game winning streak in LaLiga. During this streak, Osasuna has scored 3 goals while conceding only 1, and thanks to that they are now in the top half of the table with 44 points. Osasuna isn’t scoring a lot of goals, but they are pretty solid defensively right now. Budimir and Avilla are now the leading goalscorers for Osasuna with 6 goals each, while Garcia has 4 assists. There are a few injuries in Osasuna, while Torro is suspended because of the yellow cards. Osasuna is not a particularly good offensive team, but they can certainly score some goals, and I would say they are pretty happy with their season so far.

Real Madrid is playing in the Champions League next week, but first, they need to take care of this game in LaLiga, and then they will get a nice long rest ahead of that clash against City. Real was losing to Sevilla 2-0 this past weekend in LaLiga, but they were able to turn it around, and they ended up winning that match 2-3 with a goal by Benzema in the last minute. Real is now at the top of the table with 75 points, they have scored a nice 6 goals, and their defense is pretty good with 28 conceded goals in 32 games. The injury list is now long for Real Madrid, and Ancelotti has said Modric will be rested in this game, which could be a bit of a problem for Real Madrid. Benzema is their leading goalscorer of course with 39 goals in 39 games overall this season, while in LaLiga has 25 goals and 10 assists. The good news for Real Madrid is they have a nice advantage over Barcelona right now, which means even if they lose, they will remain at the top, but I just don’t see them losing this game.

There is no need to complicate here, Osasuna is in solid form, but Real Madrid is from another planet, and that is coming from a Barcelona fan. I’m taking Real Madrid on the money line.

Sevilla was struggling there for a while, they lost a derby against Barcelona after they got knocked out of the Europa League, but they have beaten Granada last weekend in LaLiga. With 60 points, Granada is now in 3^rd place, they have scored a solid 44 goals, but their defense is their best trait. Sevilla has conceded only 22 goals so far this season. Sevilla has some tough games to play until the end of the season, but with their defense, they don’t have to be afraid of anyone. Rafa Mir is still the leading goalscorer for Sevilla with 9 goals, while Ocampos has added 6 goals. Rakitic has added 4 assists. The injury list is still pretty long for Sevilla, but they will need to make do with what they have. Overall, Sevilla has been great on both ends this season, but they have had a few black holes which cost them a few points, and probably the title as well.

Real Madrid is on fire, especially in LaLiga where they are at the top, but they have also had an interesting game in the Champions League earlier this week. Real Madrid has won the first leg 3-1, but they were on their knees in the second leg because Chelsea was leading 3-0 until the 80^th minute. In the overtime, Benzema has scored a nice goal, and Real Madrid has advanced on aggregate. In the semifinals, Real Madrid will face Manchester City, and that will be the matchup to enjoy. As I’ve mentioned, Real Madrid is at the top of the table, they have a 12-point advantage, but anything is possible until the end of the season. Benzema has scored 24 goals and has added 10 assists so far this season, and he is the best player in the league this season. Vinicius has added 14 goals and 7 assists. Hazard is now the only injured, but not that it matters since he has been injured pretty much all the time. I think Real Madrid will win the title, as much as it pains me to say, but we will see if they can win the Champions League as well.

Sevilla is undefeated at home so far this season, but they are now facing Real Madrid which is on fire. I think this will be a hard game, but I’m being drawn towards the draw, and I will give it a shot.

Real Madrid is now on a 3-game winning streak, they have scored 7 goals in those 3 games, and they have lost only 1 of their last 9 games. In LaLiga, Real Madrid is still at the top of the table with 72 points, they are the best offensive team in the league with 63 scored goals, and they have conceded only 26 goals. Real Madrid was also able to transfer their good form into the Champions League, and Benzema has been outstanding for them. Benzema has scored 11 goals so far in the Champions League, and for as long as they have him, they will be ok. Vinicius Junior has added 2 goals and 5 assists. Hazard and Vallejo are injured, while Militao is suspended because of the yellow cards. Even though they have a big advantage here, Real Madrid must stay focused because Chelsea could come back.

As I’ve mentioned, Chelsea has had a nice win, which could be a breakout win for them. Chelsea has beaten Southampton 0-6 on the road this past weekend, and hopefully, that means they will play better in the Champions League as well. Chelsea has conceded 3 goals in the first leg, and at least 2 of those were from their mistakes, which hopefully they have worked on. Timo Werner and Kai Havertz are now the leading goalscorers for Chelsea with 3 goals each. There aren’t any notable injuries in Chelsea at the moment. Chelsea is a great team, they have a great coach, and they will definitely not give up on their spot in the semifinals, but they will need to score fast in this game. The longer it takes for Chelsea to score, the harder it will be for them, but that win against Southampton will certainly have a positive effect on the team, the fans, and everyone else in the club.

I think this will be a fairly open game because Chelsea has to attack, and that could leave them open to counterattacks. Real is playing well, but if they decide to focus on defense, they will lose. I’m taking goals in this one.

Chelsea hasn’t been at their best in the Champions League this season, but that doesn’t mean they are a bad team. In the first round of the knockouts, Chelsea has beaten Lille, and they have qualified for the quarterfinals. Timo Werner is the leading goalscorer for Chelsea in the Champions League with 3 goals, which is a clear sign Chelsea is lacking offense in the Champions League this season. Pulisic and Lukaku have added 2 goals each. Defensively, Chelsea is still one of the best teams in England, their midfield is great, but it isn’t much you can do without the offense. Yes, Chelsea has Lukaku, but they also have Havertz and Mount who are in much better form right now, and I think they get the advantage over Lukaku in this game.

Real Madrid is leading LaLiga, and they have Benzema who is playing in fantastic form this season. with 8 scored goals in 7 games, Benzema is the leading goalscorer for Real Madrid, while Vinicius has added 4 assists. In their last 7 games, Real Madrid has 6 wins and a loss, and that loss was against Barcelona just before the international break. In their last game, Real Madrid has beaten Celta Vigo, but they have had 3 penalties in that game, while they have scored 2. In the previous round of the Champions League, Real Madrid has lost the first leg to PSG, but they have won the second leg 3-1, and they have deservedly qualified for this round. I think that the offense Real Madrid has is excellent, as long as Benzema is playing, but their defense tends to be a bit shaky, and it’s not as good as it was at the start of the season. If they stay healthy, Real Madrid could get even further in the Champions League, but they will need Benzema to keep playing this well.

Chelsea has played against Real Madrid only once at home, and they have won that game 2-0, and that was also in the Champions League last season. Real Madrid is scoring a lot of goals, and with Chelsea being a bit sloppy defensively, I think they will score here as well, which is why I will take the goals in this one.
