Since the end of September, their performances have dipped significantly with losses to Crystal Palace, Galatasaray, Manchester United, Brentford and Chelsea raising serious concerns. Real Madrid, priced at 8\/5, may have been beaten last year, yet this is a very different team now. Liverpool\u2019s defence has looked far from secure, and keeping the Spanish champions quiet will be a huge challenge. With three wins from their last five trips to Anfield, Madrid will travel with confidence and little reason to be intimidated by the occasion.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Kylian Mbapp\u00e9 to Score Anytime<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><a href=\"\/en\/go\/sky-bet?q=gb-all-tmp-wof-s-spo\">11\/10<\/a><\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\n<td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Confidence is flowing through the Real Madrid squad, and with Kylian Mbapp\u00e9 in sensational form, it\u2019s hard to look past him finding the net at Anfield on Tuesday night. The French forward has been the driving force behind Madrid\u2019s excellent campaign, scoring in 13 of his last 14 matches, and he continues to deliver on the biggest stages. Liverpool\u2019s defence has looked shaky in recent weeks, and facing a player of Mbapp\u00e9\u2019s pace and finishing ability could spell trouble. With the visitors full of belief and Mbapp\u00e9 in unstoppable form, backing Mbapp\u00e9 to score anytime looks like one of the standout bets of the match..<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n\n\n    <div class=\"sq-toplist\">\n        <div class=\"sq-toplist__items\">\n\t\t\t    <div\n            class=\"sq-toplist__item\"\n            data-entity-id=\"1381273\"\n            data-offer-id=\"1381470\"\n    >\n\t\t        <div class=\"sq-toplist__item-container\">\n            <div class=\"sq-toplist__offer\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/go\/bet365?q=gb-all-con-wof-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-brand=\"bet365\"data-placement=\"football-ai-pre-game\" data-rating=\"9.5\" data-position=\"1\" data-placement-details=\"logo\" class=\"sq-toplist__logo\" style=\"background:#01644a\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/04\/29162841\/bet365.svg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"Bet365 Logo\" \/><\/a>\t\t\t\t                <div class=\"sq-toplist__offer-box\">\n                    <span class=\"sq-toplist__bookmaker\">\n                        <a href=\"\/en\/go\/bet365?q=gb-all-con-wof-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-brand=\"bet365\"data-placement=\"football-ai-pre-game\" data-rating=\"9.5\" data-position=\"1\" data-placement-details=\"brand_name\">bet365<\/a>                    <\/span>\n                    <span class=\"sq-toplist__offer-title is-tablet-visible\">\n                        <a href=\"\/en\/go\/bet365?q=gb-all-con-wof-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-brand=\"bet365\"data-placement=\"football-ai-pre-game\" data-rating=\"9.5\" data-position=\"1\" data-placement-details=\"offer\">Use code SQUAWKA365 and bet \u00a310 to get \u00a330 in free bets<\/a>                    <\/span>\n                <\/div>\n                <span class=\"sq-toplist__offer-title is-mobile-visible\">\n                    <a href=\"\/en\/go\/bet365?q=gb-all-con-wof-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-brand=\"bet365\"data-placement=\"football-ai-pre-game\" data-rating=\"9.5\" data-position=\"1\" data-placement-details=\"offer\">Use code SQUAWKA365 and bet \u00a310 to get \u00a330 in free bets<\/a>                <\/span>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"sq-toplist__buttons\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/go\/bet365?q=gb-all-con-wof-s-spo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-brand=\"bet365\"data-placement=\"football-ai-pre-game\" data-rating=\"9.5\" data-position=\"1\" data-placement-details=\"cta\" class=\"sq-btn sq-btn--secondary sq-btn--full\">Claim Offer<\/a>                <div class=\"sq-rating\">\n                    <span class=\"sq-rating__text\">Our Score<\/span>\n                    <span class=\"sq-rating__value\">9.5<\/span>\n                <\/div>\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/betting-sites\/bet365-review\/\" class=\"sq-review-link\">\n                    <span>Read our review<\/span>\n                <\/a>\n            <\/div>\n\t\t\t        <ul class=\"sq-toplist__features\">\n                            <li class=\"sq-toplist__features-item\">Bet \u00a310 get \u00a330<\/li>\n                            <li class=\"sq-toplist__features-item\">Excellent Football Betting Options<\/li>\n                            <li class=\"sq-toplist__features-item\">Extensive Bet-Builder<\/li>\n                            <li class=\"sq-toplist__features-item\">Multi-Award Winning Bookmaker<\/li>\n                    <\/ul>\n                <\/div>\n\t\t            <div class=\"sq-toplist__item-tc\"><p>New customers can sign up using bonus code SQUAWKA365, bet \u00a310 and get \u00a330 in Free Bets.

id=\"h-how-both-teams-go-into-liverpool-vs-real-madrid\">How both teams go into Liverpool vs Real Madrid<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Liverpool ended their poor run in the Premier League after a 2-0 victory over Aston Villa on Saturday. However, they face a different animal in Real Madrid, with the Reds only coming out on top in four of their last six matches across all competitions. In Europe, Liverpool have taken nine points from a possible nine, with wins against Atletico Madrid, Galatasaray and Eintracht Frankfurt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Real Madrid have already gained a five-point lead at the top of the La Liga table and are really starting to purr under Xabi Alonso. With Mbappe in the form of his life, Los Blancos have won all three of their Champions League matches so far this term and have only tasted defeat once across all formats since the start of the 2025\/26 season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-liverpool-team-news\">Liverpool team news<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Liverpool were boosted by Ryan Gravenberch\u2019s return from an ankle injury on Saturday, but Alexander Isak and Curtis Jones remain sidelined with groin issues and are unlikely to feature on Tuesday. Alisson Becker, Giovanni Leoni, and Jeremie Frimpong are also ruled out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Manager Arne Slot is expected to stick with the side that impressed at the weekend, meaning Alexis Mac Allister and Andy Robertson should keep their places after strong performances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-real-madrid-team-news\">Real Madrid team news<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For Real Madrid, Dani Carvajal, Antonio R\u00fcdiger, and David Alaba are all injury doubts, with only Alaba having a slim chance of returning. Carvajal\u2019s suspension would have ended this week, but a new knee injury rules him out long-term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That could open the door for Trent Alexander-Arnold to face his former club, although he has yet to play since recovering from a hamstring issue, meaning Federico Valverde may again fill in at right-back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Season Form &amp; Standings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2025\/26 season to date:<\/strong> Real Madrid have started perfectly, with three wins from three and just one goal conceded.
