Real Madrid Preview
It is well known that Real Madrid needs no introduction, but here we will tell you something you may not know: it has gone eight games undefeated with a total of 22 goals scored and only 5 conceded, it currently leads in La Liga, and it won the first match of the Champions League group stage against Celtic.
Vinicius Junior is their most consistent striker so far, who will also be available for Wednesday’s game, as will Toni Kroos, Eden Hazard, and Thibaut Courtois. Thus, this team has its strongest and most skilled players available for the squad. The pace of the defending champion is maintained, and it is the clear favorite to win on Wednesday.
Possible starting eleven: Thibaut Courtois; Daniel Carvajal, Antonio Rudiger, David Alaba, Ferland Mendy; Toni Kroos, Eduardo Camavinga, Aurelien Tchouameni; Eden Hazard, Federico Valverde, Vinicius Junior.
RB Leipzig Preview
On the other hand, RB Leipzig lost in the debut match of this edition of the Champions League against Shaktar Donetsk. However, it has had some really remarkable games in the last month: 8-0 vs Teutonia Ottensen; 3-0 vs Borussia Dortmund, and 2-0 vs Wolfsburg.
Timo Werner is one of their most outstanding players of the last month, as he has helped convert goals the most. In total, this team has scored 17 goals since August 13. The Teutonic team’s attacking power could cause a surprise in Madrid, but another defeat would extend their poor start to European soccer this season.
Possible starting eleven: Peter Gulacsi; Mohamed Simakan, Willi Orban, Abdou Diallo, David Raum; Konrad Laimer, Xaver Schlager, Christopher Nkunku, Emil Forsberg, Dominik Szoboszlai; Timo Werner.
JefeBet Prediction
Although these are two very strong teams, Real Madrid’s dominance, experience, and expertise is undeniable. So, together with their goal statistics and RB Leipzig’s recent weaknesses, it is very likely that the Spanish side will overcome the German team without much difficulty.
Prediction: Real Madrid wins by 4-2.
