I don't think training has any effect on that, in fact I have a view that with heavy training it will help them on the field. I also mean they have procedures about their training, and there's no way they're going to force themselves to do training on their players. They are a professional club and they have a lot of staff to see the development of the players, including providing training portions. Actually, a storm of injuries like this is something we've seen a lot, we can't predict when it will come and all clubs have the opportunity to experience it all. One of the things we worry about for a club is also a storm of injuries, we even discussed it before the season really started.

This is interesting, what you said seems right. I mean when Madrid is underestimated that's when they make calculations. Don't be fooled by the Odds because if you remember in the Champions League when Madrid met Liverpool, the bookies gave Liverpool an advantage but what happened was Madrid came out as the winner with their comeback which made the Odds at that time profitable for gamblers. So in anticipation of this match we must remain careful considering that Madrid understands the Champions League battlefield very well.

Indeed, the circumstances currently confronting Real Madrid are extremely formidable, and as one of the biggest clubs in the world, this is something that has never been imagined before. But that's the way it goes in football; the unexpected can always happen to even the most historically successful teams.

Currently, Real Madrid is really in a difficult situation, because Real Madrid's position in the standings is not really safe. sealed, pressure increasing. Them having not fully recovered players, or even a lack of squad depth due to mass injuries—this will mean they will have to fight even harder to secure a ticket to the last 16.

This is a test for Real Madrid. A test for the coach and for all the available player resources, to prove they can withstand the trial and set an efficient plan with the scarce resources at their disposal. Sure, the return of the players should be a major priority, but at the same time, the team should be able to adjust using everything available.

Actually I thought about that before too, Real Madrid even though they had a bad match in the last few matches but they have a qualifying squad that can change the situation, we know that Real Madrid players have quality and that makes us think that way with Real Madrid, and we can't determine Madrid really fell too far.

But when Real Madrid are still the same as in their bad days it will certainly be easy for Liverpool, Arne Slot and Liverpool will definitely do their best to maintain their consistency so far, however Real Madrid will not be underestimated by them.

What we are not realizing about Real Madrid is the injuries as well. Everyone jumps on ship to say whatever bad thing they want to say about them, but they have/had a lot of injuries this season. Some of them recovered, but they had a first month that was terrible and there were like 10 players missing, now we are seeing some other players missing as well, they are really having trouble.

I do not know what kind of training they do to cause this much trouble for players neither, but I believe that they need to be careful about their training, they need to focus on recovery for the players because they already train a lot, so recovery is a lot more important after games and if they could do that then we could see them have a much better result, these injuries are the only reason they are this bad. If they didn't have these injuries and all of Real Madrid players were fully healthy then I guarantee you that they will be able to beat everyone.

For me, the odds given by the bookmaker are very equal to the risk that will come because even though Liverpool is the host, it does not mean that Madrid cannot put up a fight even though they have lost several times. We must remember that this is a football that is difficult to predict even though the statistics are very strong but a mistake can happen during the match.
And in the last sentence you said, I agree that a draw can happen and this is what I expect. I would even bet on a draw to get big odds, but if it's just about profit, BTTS is the best choice.

Liverpool is in good form and has a strong momentum, especially in the champions league at the moment, so far their have a pretty good balance by having a sharp attack and a solid defense that makes them difficult to beat, as well as madrid who have a long and successful history in the champions league of course also not worth underestimating their mentality and experience so far,  but we can't deny that in the  match liverpool actually has a big advantage to win the match later, because in addition playing at home, they are current in a better condition than madrid who are limping due to injury.

Your decision not to bet on this match is the right step to remember a match that is difficult to predict, but I quite confident if we will see both teams score in the match and BTTS will be my choice for add excitement in watching the match later.

Real Madrid injury crisis hasn't yet been resolved and they are still having quite a good numbers of their players out, so it will be absolutely difficult for real Madrid to win Liverpool. Madrid are not in good condition we should tell ourselves the truth. Madrid has been struggling for sometime now, so it's not going to be business as usual when they meet Liverpool. Madrid has a better head to head against Liverpool, but this wasn't the form that Madrid was back then when they were winning Liverpool in those days. The present Liverpool team has a better hand and it is time for Liverpool to take revenge against real Madrid. It's not about Madrid knowing the weaknesses of Liverpool, rather Real Madrid were in better form when they were winning Liverpool. But now the game has changed and Liverpool will win Madrid.

Real Madrid's current weakness lies in their back line. And yeah all of that is a result of several injured players this squad has. In fact, several of these players are certain to be absent until this season ends. So the situation in Real Madrid's back line is actually really unstable at the moment. Even though this club has quite good second tier players, they cannot replace the core players who of course have better quality. But Ancelotti may have thought of another solution to face Liverpool. So, we really can't just choose which team we should choose as a favorite for this match. But if you look at the current stability of the team, Liverpool really deserves to be the favorite. It's just that in H2H everything doesn't look good enough for Liverpool. Because Real Madrid always seems to know how to beat Liverpool every time they meet. But maybe there will be a different result at this meeting.

Considering Real Madrid's drop in form, combined with the fact that match will be played at Anfield, many people will likely favour Liverpool ahead of the visiting team. However Real Madrid's strong reputation and history in the Champions League along with their attacking players in Vinicius junior, Jude Bellingham, Endrick and Kylian Mbappe makes it very difficult to overlook them. They have the potentials to defeat Liverpool even at home. While Liverpool is also a strong team and a tough opponent, it's unlikely that they would find the encounter with Real Madrid easy. I will bet on both team to score as Real Madrid won't be able to keep a clean sheet and also Liverpool will be unable to stop Real Madrid's attack from scoring.

You should know injury feasted on Madrid's players which led to their inconsistency this season which is unlike them. Winning three games out of five still shows that they ain't that bad as people feel they are and who knows if Madrid have started picking form despite not having their complete first eleven on ground.

Liverpool is in a good form but I will not say that victory is guaranteed for them in this match because who knows if Real Madrid already knows Liverpool weaknesses and how to outperform them since onset and will use that as an advantage over Liverpool, if Slot didn't change their game pattern.

This match between the two best teams in Europe right now is certainly very difficult to predict, regardless of what Real Madrid or Liverpool are experiencing, but anything is possible in the match between the two teams later.

If we look realistically, Liverpool's performance is now better than Real Madrid, but overall, the strength if we look at the existing squad is quite balanced so that the performance of the two teams in their last few matches cannot be used as a reference for the results obtained in the match later.

But for betting options, I think there are still many choices and we can still choose many of those choices with the same risk, compared to having to refrain from betting, I think it is the wrong step, this is a big match so whatever betting option we choose will be quite worth it with the risk.

I don't understand a little bit about the basis of the parameters that Madrid should be favored over Liverpool, especially if we refer to Madrid's 2 matches in the Champions League. Madrid previously lost narrowly at Lillie's home, then fell at the Santiago Bernabeu by Milan. in the 5th round of the preliminary phase Madrid will visit Liverpool's headquarters, unfortunately some of their core players must be absent due to injury. as we all know, if Madrid needs full points against Liverpool. even so, Carlo Ancelotti's team still has the probability of bringing home 3 points to Santiago Bernabeu, unfortunately it won't be easy as we discussed. we can assume that Carlo Ancelotti will likely be aiming for victory for his team even though they are playing at Liverpool's headquarters. unfortunately, Rodrygo, Vazquez, Carvajal, Tchouameni, Alaba and Courtois did not participate in strengthening Real Madrid in this match. I think it's quite hard for Don Carlo to formulate a strategy so that his team can get full points, but in any case Real Madrid does need a win to determine the remaining matches they will play. In Liverpool's camp, this match is equally important when they will host City after meeting Madrid. As we generally know, Liverpool had a bad meeting based on H2H when playing against Madrid. As a new coach, Arne Slot certainly wants his team to win this match, especially since they are playing at home. They have the opportunity to defeat Madrid, plus Liverpool is on the right track. So, if Liverpool is slightly more favored, it is natural if we refer to both teams. Regarding the results of this match, that is another matter, we will find out when the 5th session of the Champions League qualifiers is held again.

It is very difficult to predict this match. We have to be ready to see any result. And betting on this match is also very risky. Liverpool is in great form now and has managed to retain the top spot in the Champions League table. It is true that Liverpool is in a strong position. However, there is no reason to think that Real Madrid is a weak team. Although Real Madrid's performance this season has been a bit erratic.

It cannot be denied that Real Madrid is the most experienced team on the Champions League platform. So even if they are not in good form, Real Madrid has full potential to win against Liverpool by a big margin. I will probably refrain from betting on this match.

Of course Real Madrid will not give up so easily, especially after experiencing defeats from Lille and Milan. Real Madrid's mission is to win the match at Anfield, but victory is not something that is easy to achieve at Liverpool headquarters because this team is in top condition. Betting on Real Madrid is very risky, anyone should look more realistically based on the results achieved by both teams in the last few matches. In my opinion, the burden will be on Real Madrid, on the one hand they are required to win, while on the other hand they will face a team that has not been defeated in its last four matches in the UCL.

Saw the same Milan who humbled Real Madrid last week losing to Liverpool so I can go with your selection and prediction for this game honestly. Too many injuries, coaches decisions and individual errors has lead to the chaotic season they're currently facing,  but the bookmakers are not good deciders of the game.

Real Madrid will forever remain the same in the champions league and I expect them to put up a solid fight at Anfield.

Based on what we see, Liverpool's performance in the last 5 matches has been quite consistent in winning and Real Madrid has lost 2 times in the last 5 matches. In the Champions League, Real Madrid's performance is also a little different this season, unlike previous seasons which were able to achieve a convincing victory in the first round of the UCL, but if you look at the statistics of their meetings so far in the UCL, Madrid has always won matches against Liverpool, let's see if there will be a surprise in their meeting this time.

Yes, it is true that Liverpool appeared impressive this season and of course, even though they were under the guidance of a new coach (Arne), the Liverpool players were able to adapt well and in the end there was a good Liverpool strength. and it is true that their defense line is very good and extraordinary and of course I think Liverpool's attack is also very dangerous.

It is true that at the moment Real Madrid has not been consistent in winning, of course this is different from Liverpool, which is currently in good form and of course it was unexpected that Real Madrid's mainstay player was injured and of course this is really very difficult for Real Madrid. Yes, Real Madrid has Vinicius, Mbappe, Bellingham and others, but of course, with Real Madrid's fragile defense line, it will certainly be difficult for the front line players to act. Yes, Militao is a great defender who is now injured, of course this really makes Real Madrid confused because he always protects Real Madrid's defense well. Yes, maybe now Rudiger should be able to protect Real Madrid's defense optimally.

Yes, this will be a tough battle for Real Madrid, and of course here Ancelotti must be able to do his best to make Real madrid perform well, even though currently Real Madrid's mainstay player is injured. Yes, I think Ancelotti can apply a 4-4-2 formation so that the opposing team can have a little difficulty breaking through and using a defensive system. Yes, Liverpool deserves to be the favorite in the match, we'll see.

I will bet the same as you besides how bad Real Madrid's performance was before, and many Madrid players got injured. But I guess Real Madrid won't give up so easily because they don't want to be humiliated as the defending champion. Real Madrid is already looked down upon by fans, and football observers so that under current conditions they must rise up to prove that they are a team that does not give up easily.

We know Liverpool is a team that has the upper hand, but with the condition of the team that has just found its best performance, there is usually a time they will slip and be careless. Real Madrid knows that, and maybe it's time for Ancelotti to implement his secret strategy to face a big team like Liverpool.

I won't get excited, because there is a possibility to draw.

Clearly the bookies here are allocating this odds based off the past performance of both teams in their last 3-5 games because obviously that's what is reflected in the odds in seeing in this picture, well they cannot be blamed as most of these odds are allocated based off statistical information and sometimes circumstances around team but I would like to look at this teams from their various points of importance or priority attached to this game due to its importance, if we are to go by that, then Madrid should be the favorite as they needed this game more than Liverpool may but they don't appear to have the strength but I believe id they push hard, a draw wouldn't be a bad one and it's very much achievable.
