Since a losing effort in their last game against Bournemouth in Premier League action, Liverpool will be aiming to make amends here.

In that game, Liverpool had 69% possession and 15 shots on goal with 6 of them on target. For their opponents, Bournemouth got 5 attempts on goal with 2 on target. Philip Billing (28') was the scorer for Bournemouth.

The trend of at least one team not managing to score in games involving Liverpool has been apparent of late. Looking at their last six outings shows that it’s occurred 5 times. During these clashes, their opponents have managed a goal tally of 6 while Liverpool have scored 13. That sort of pattern isn’t assured to follow through into this next game, however.

📋 Team News: Real Madrid

Ferland Mendy (Muscle Injury) and David Alaba (Hamstring Injury) are unavailable for Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti.

It’s our opinion that Los Blancos could line up in a 4-3-3 formation, beginning the first half with Thibaut Courtois, Daniel Carvajal, Eder Militao, Antonio Ruediger, Nacho Fernandez, Luka Modric, Eduardo Camavinga, Toni Kroos, Federico Valverde, Karim Benzema and Vinicius Junior.

🗞️ Team News: Liverpool

Liverpool boss Jürgen Klopp has not got a full squad to pick from. Thiago (Problems with the hip flexor), Luis Díaz (Knee Injury) and Calvin Ramsay (Knee Surgery) are names that won’t be on the team sheet.

There’s a good chance that The Reds will likely play in a 4-3-2-1 system, starting Alisson Becker, T. Alexander-Arnold, Ibrahima Konate, Virgil van Dijk, Andrew Robertson, Diogo Jota, Fabinho, James Milner, Mohamed Salah, Cody Gakpo and Darwin Nunez.

✨ Prediction

We believe that Liverpool have enough to break down this Real Madrid team, but that is unlikely to be as many as they will have scored against them.

We are anticipating a tight encounter finishing with a 2-1 victory for Real Madrid when all is said and done. Should be a good one.
