On August 10, Real Madrid and Eintracht will play the UEFA Super Cup. Who will win the match that will take place in Helsinki? Our portal gives a forecast for the meeting.
Real Madrid
Carlo Ancelotti's team won the championship title in Spain at the end of last season, and also received the title of the strongest club in Europe. In the final match of the Champions League, Madrid beat Liverpool (1-0) thanks to a goal by Vinicius Junior and the exploits of goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois. In the summer, the capital's team said goodbye to several experienced players at once — Isco, Marcelo and Gareth Bale's contracts expired. In addition, Luka Jovic moved to Fiorentina, and Borja Mayoral — to Getafe. Of the acquisitions of Real Madrid, he noted the expensive midfielder Aurelien Tchuameni — Monaco received 80 million euros for him. And defender Antonio Ruediger, who had previously played for Chelsea, moved to Madrid as a free agent. In the off-season, Real Madrid took part in three test matches. They lost to Barcelona (0:1), drew with America (2:2), and Juventus outplayed with a score of 2:0.
Eintracht Fr
Last season, the club from Frankfurt performed poorly in the domestic championship and took only 11th place. At the same time, Oliver Glasner's team beat Rangers in the Europa League final — the fate of the title was decided by a penalty shootout. Thanks to this, Eintracht won a ticket to the main draw of the Champions League and got the opportunity to play with Real Madrid for the UEFA Super Cup. Of the team's summer acquisitions, we note the transfers of world champion Mario Gotze, striker Lucas Alario and midfielder Jens-Petter Hauge, who was bought from Milan. In the new season, Eintracht got off to a terrible start — in the first round they suffered a crushing defeat from Bayern with a score of 1:6. And this is taking into account the fact that the match is taking place in Frankfurt! The only goal for the losing team was scored by striker Randal Kolo-Muani.
Statistics and figures:
- Real Madrid — the favorite of the match for the Super Cup;
- In five of the last six matches involving Real Madrid, the "total less" bet takes place;
- The German club has won three of the last four matches;
- The teams have not met each other before.
Forecast
Most likely, Real Madrid will justify the status of the favorite and win another trophy. Suppose the Madrid team scores more than one goal.
