Premium Tips
We have landed on two Champions League bets at the Bernabeu ahead of Wednesday’s 8pm (UK time) kick-off.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Real Madrid to win and both teams to score | 11/10 (Sky Bet) | Real Madrid have won both their league-phase games but kept it loose at both ends, conceding four goals across the two and failing to register a single clean sheet. RB Leipzig, for their part, have found the net in both outings and come in off a 1-0 home win over PSV. With Los Blancos scoring six in two matches and the visitors unlikely to leave empty-handed, backing the hosts to come through a game with goals at either end holds plenty of appeal. |
| Arda Guler to score anytime | 3/1 (Paddy Power) | Arda Guler has become a key creative force for a Real Madrid side that has rattled in six goals in just two league-phase matches. The Bernabeu crowd should see a steady supply of chances against a Leipzig defence that shipped four in a chastening trip to Como. At 3/1, the Turkey international looks a tempting price to get on the scoresheet, particularly with Real Madrid expected to dominate possession and territory for long spells on home soil. |

How Real Madrid go into the game
Real Madrid arrive on the back of two wins from two, sitting eighth in the league phase with six points. Los Blancos edged a thriller at Roma last time out, winning 4-3 on the road, having opened with a 2-1 home victory over Internazionale.
That is six goals scored across their opening two matches, though four conceded hints at defensive gaps. Their home record reads one win from one, a 2-1 success, and they have yet to keep a clean sheet in the competition.
How RB Leipzig go into the game
RB Leipzig have taken three points from their first two games, a record that leaves them 21st. They beat PSV 1-0 at home last time out, a result that followed a 4-1 defeat away at Como on the opening matchday.
Their sole clean sheet came in that PSV win, but the trip to Como showed how exposed they can be, shipping four. On the road they have lost their only away outing, and Christopher Nkunku leads the line hoping to trouble the hosts.
