Liverpool vs Real Madrid Tips

Tip 1

Although their last encounter housed seven goals at Anfield, three of the last four games between Liverpool and Real Madrid have featured one or fewer goals.

There are plenty of forces at play to suggest this match could underwhelm, including Los Blancos’ sound defensive record on the road this term, LFC’s comfortable UCL position and the fact that the Reds will have one eye on the weekend’s clash with Man City.

Ancelotti has also previously quelled this Liverpool attack and Slot has proven he is unafraid to play it cautiously which could both contribute to a somewhat drab affair.

Tip 2

That being said, we still like the 5/2 odds being presented for Liverpool forward Luis Diaz to notch, especially since this campaign’s record of nine in 17 suggest value alone.

He bagged a hat-trick in Liverpool’s last home game in this competition – a 4-0 demolition of Bayer Leverkusen.

Arne Slot played him in a central role that night and could well deploy him there again after resting him against Southampton following two appearances for Colombia during the international break.

Liverpool Form, Team News & Predicted Line-Up

A seemingly uncomplicated trip to St Mary’s made for nervy work despite Liverpool’s ability to extend their lead at the summit of the Premier League table to eight points with a dramatic 3-2 win.

Despite Harvey Elliott’s return to the matchday squad on Sunday, the Reds are still without Alisson Becker, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Federico Chiesa and Diogo Jota for Madrid’s visit.

Liverpool Predicted XI: Kelleher; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Tsimikas; Gravenberch, Mac Allister; Salah, Szoboszlai, Diaz; Nunez.

Real Madrid Form, Team News & Predicted Line-Up

Back-to-back victories have helped Madrid claw back some integrity in their La Liga title defence, however, they’ll have their work cut out for them against a formidable LFC side midweek.

Vinicius Junior’s recent hamstrung prognosis leaves him sidelined for the trip to Anfield, joining David Alaba, Dani Carvajal, Eder Militao, Aurelien Tchouameni, Lucas Vazquez and Rodrygo.

Real Madrid Predicted XI: Courtois; Valverde, Asencio, Rudiger, Mendy; Camavinga, Modric; Guler, Bellingham, Diaz; Mbappe.
