BACKGROUND AND FAVORITISMS
When taking a look on the last confrontations between both teams, the numbers are very positive for ‘Merengues’, the team led by Carlo Ancelotti. In principle, both teams met in the final of the 2017/18 Champions League, when the Spanish club defeated Liverpool (today led by the German coach Jürgen Klopp) 3-1. Later, in the quarterfinals of the UCL 2020/21 edition, Madrid won 3-1 at home at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium and draw 0-0 on their visit to Anfield.
Going even further back in history, in the 2014/15 UCL group stage, Real Madrid triumphed in both games: 3-0 away and 1-0 home, with three of those four goals scored by the French striker Karim Benzema, who will be a protagonist of next Saturday’s final. The only favorable precedent for Liverpool -a very bitter pill to swallow for the Spanish- was in the 2008/09 UCL round of 16. Back then, Liverpool crushed Madrid 5-0 on aggregate: 1-0 in the first leg in Spain with a goal from Yossi Benayoun and 4-0 in the second leg in Merseyside. It was Madrid’s biggest defeat in the UEFA Champions League.
Although Real Madrid is the most trophy-winning club in the world, with 13 Champions to its credit, and Liverpool only has 6, players led by Egyptian striker Mohamed Salah have been showing a high gaming level in recent matches, for which they are the betting favorites. Indeed, bookmakers pay 1.57 for Liverpool to get the trophy, while the odds for Real Madrid go up to 2.25. One of the most anticipated matches of the year is coming, then, and Betcris will be there to accompany fans, followers and bettors.
