In the match of the third round of the Champions League group stage, the players of Real Madrid and Shakhtar Donetsk will come face to face. On whose side will the victory be in this meeting? Our sports portal gives a forecast for this meeting.
Real Madrid
Carlo Ancelotti's team scored a maximum of 6 points in two rounds. Moreover, the "cream" did not miss a single ball. But in their last match, Real Madrid sensationally lost points. As part of the Spanish Primera Madrid drew with Osasuna (1:1). It is worth noting the fact that as a result of this, "creamy" fell to the second line and loses to the Catalans only by additional points. Real Madrid will try to actively attack, and Karim Benzema and Vinicius Junior will show excellent interaction up front.
Shakhtar Donetsk
The Miners are building a team on the move. Now the basis of the team is not the usual Brazilians, but young Ukrainians. In the last round of the LCH, the Ukrainian team painted a world match with Celtic (1:1). Moreover, the Celts were and remain the main pursuers of Real Madrid. In the first meeting, let me remind you, the Miners were able to defeat RB Leipzig with a score of 4:1, and in the championship match they smashed Metalist to smithereens (6:1). In today's game, Shakhtar will play the second number.
Statistics and figures:
- Real Madrid - the favorite of the meeting;Madrid have 4 wins in 5 matches;
- The Miners won 3 out of 5 meetings;
- The last face-to-face meeting of the rivals ended with a score of 2:1 in favor of Real Madrid.
- Forecast
In this meeting, both teams will be able to score a goal.
The defense of both teams has its own problems in defense, which will certainly affect the result of the meeting in Madrid. Our bet will be on "both will score – yes."
