Match Preview: Real Madrid vs Bayern Munich
Real Madrid and Bayern Munich are locked in a fierce battle for top honours this season. However, with Bayer Leverkusen snatching the crown away from the visitors to the Spanish capital, the race is tighter than ever.
Despite Bayern’s recent resurgence in the Bundesliga, a setback against Stuttgart has thrown the fight wide open. Their defensive struggles persist, compounded by a worrying injury crisis. Bayern’s away form has been particularly concerning, with no clean sheets since December and frequent multiple-goal concessions.
Adding to their woes, they’ve failed to keep a clean sheet against Real Madrid in 16 games, with no victories in nine attempts against manager Ancelotti. It’s a challenging road ahead for the Bavarians.
Madrid secured their 36th domestic title, equalling a joint record with Juventus in Europe’s top five leagues, thanks to Girona’s help. They overcame Barcelona 4-2 following Carlo Ancelotti’s squad’s 3-0 thrashing of Cádiz. Ancelotti rotated his lineup, with Brahim Díaz and Joselu adding to Jude Bellingham’s goal.
Key players like Vinícius, Rodrygo, Toni Kroos, Federico Valverde, Aurélien Tchouaméni, and Antonio Rüdiger were benched ahead of a crucial second leg. Vinícius, who scored twice last week, has been involved in 31 Champions League goals since Madrid’s victorious 2021-22 campaign, more than any other player.
Real Madrid vs Borussia Dortmund Odds

You just got Kaned

Stale
There is so much riding on this one, and the first game was certainly cagey. This match could well be even more tense. Under 1.5 goals is priced at 4.75 and you could see this one being a low scoring game as both sides ensure they don’t give easy chances away.
