However, Liverpool is going to be the favorite to win the next game if we consider how Real Madrid has lost their games this season. Even though Liverpool hasn't lost a Champions League match this season, they will still face major challenges when they meet Real Madrid, so let's ignore that Real Madrid is having difficult times with injured players. Considering that Real Madrid lost to Milan in Santiago and Liverpool defeated Ac Milan during an away game, many people will give Liverpool a greater chance than Real Madrid. The only position where Real Madrid will struggle is at right back, and we're not sure who they'll use there against Liverpool.

Till the season has finally come to an end and Real Madrid's performance hasn't improved, I will never believe that they have failed at the start of the season. Real Madrid still has more games and more time to recover. In football, anything is possible. They may defeat Liverpool at home without conceding a goal because, in my opinion, Courtois will be ready, which would be great for Real Madrid. With four games remaining, they still have a chance to recover despite their Champions League standing.

Liverpool do have the advantage in the match with fit and well-rotated condition , and their consistency and steady form will allow them to take  3 points in the match, but even so, Madrid also have a great chance of beating Liverpool if they can overcome their injury problems and get back to their best in the match later, the pressure is certainly on Ancelotti after the poor results they've had in the UCL and La Liga, but even so, I'm pretty sure if madrid can pick themselves up and sooner or later they'll be  favourites again in the UCL and La Liga, because I think madrid still have a chance to improve their form, especially if injured players can recover soon and young players get more chances to play later.

Indeed, Real Madrid should buy some players in the upcoming transfer market, especially players who should be prioritized are defenders, which we know the crisis in that line is very concerning, as well as the midfielder position which is the center of Madrid's attack until now has not been maximized. With the finances owned by Madrid, they will easily buy it.

For the time being in the two important competitions La Liga and the Champions League, Madrid performance is far below its standard as the king of Europe.

The midfield is very important because it is the transition of the ball to be effective to the striker and now Madrid does not have a figure who is able to be a balancer. Bellingham, Valverde, Tchuameni, and Camavinga have not been able to make a good transition. Modric is no longer the Modric we used to know, he is old and has lost his prime.

Liverpool is in good shape this season in the Champions League and Premier League but the coming game of Liverpool against Real Madrid that game is an unpredicted game for me, no matter how bad Real Madrid is Liverpool always finds it difficult to defeat Real Madrid and if you don't believe go and check both teams score record, I think we should not doubt Real Madrid this season in Champion league because of they find it difficult to defeat Ac Milan, Real Madrid is going to play very well in the game against Liverpool.

Real Madrid's key players are injured but from Real Madrid's performance against Osasuna you will know that the team is balanced and they are Ready to play against any opponents, I don't think Real Madrid will lose to Liverpool easily because Carlo Ancelotti said he has found the solution to the team problem and from the look of things the team performance is good.

Yes, that's right. It is very clear that Real Madrid's performance this season has been uncertain after losing Toni Kroos who retired. Real Madrid's midfield does have many potential players but none like Toni Kroos who has a vision, mission, and sharp passes that pamper the front players. In addition, it is also because Ancelotti does not dare to play young players like Arda Guller, and there are still many players who should have the opportunity to show their abilities.

Hopefully Ancelotti will change his mind after the international break by trusting young players when his team is stuck in scoring goals. In addition, what has caused Real Madrid's performance to decline lately is because of injuries to the back line players, so in my opinion if the transfer market opens later, the first thing Ancelotti must buy is a back player because Real Madrid's weakness this season is in the back line. The front line and midfield are actually good, it's just that Ancelotti must be stricter with the players so that they can play optimally.

After winning big against Asasuna, it must be admitted, it wouldn't be Real Madrid if they couldn't bounce back, because Real Madrid always has many ways and knows how to bounce back. So even though Liverpool are tough opponents, if they play against Real Madrid, Liverpool will still have a hard time, especially since Real Madrid has shown signs of revival. I doubt Liverpool can beat Real Madrid.

This season, Real Madrid is not in good form. We can see the deterioration of Real Madrid's performance after Mbappe joined the squad. Especially, we cannot see better performance from Bellingham and Rodrygo this season. Mbappe is also not able to perform well as expected. Due to this, Real Madrid's performance is a bit irregular in both the Champions League and La Liga. On the other hand, Barcelona is in great rhythm with the help of Hansi Flick. Although they lost the first match of the Champions League, Barcelona played well in the next three matches and won. Barcelona is also at the top of the table in La Liga.

After Toni Kroos retired, Real Madrid could not organize the midfield. In fact, they did not try to convince the German player not to retire. I think he should have played for Real Madrid for a few more years. Look, after the German retired, Real Madrid fell behind a lot in the midfield. They also make some mistakes in the defense area and had very surprising results in the Champions League this year. Many people thought that they could be at the top of the Champions League, but if they lose against Liverpool now, they will probably play in the playoffs. This is a Champions League qualifying stage where Real Madrid fell far short of my expectations. Of course, I think they will make transfers to the defense and midfield in the January transfer window to fix these.

I also think that Real Madrid should be willing to take advantage of the moment in the January transfer market because besides being able to help teams that are experiencing injuries to their important players, Real Madrid this season is really not strong enough in their midfield so they often have difficulty in creating their best passes in every match. So it's not wrong from what you said because Madrid really has to fix some lines that are still weak by relying on new recruitment in January.

Real Madrid, who ended the season by only signing Kylian Mbappé this year, is struggling with many injuries. Maybe they can make transfers to replace some players who are injured for a long time. For example, they can get a player instead of Carvajal. Since he ended the season, he will not play any more this season. Also, since the Champions League is very important for Real Madrid, they will have set their minds on being successful on this platform. They are also doing well in the Spanish league, but they are behind Barcelona. However, they were completely disappointing in the Champions League.

Real Madrid are unlucky with this, I don't know if it's just a coincidence, or if the reason for such frequent injuries should be sought within the team, in the training processes, perhaps, but Ancelotti didn't have such problems before. Liverpool are fine with this, all the players are ready to play and therefore I think they have a good advantage. I just remembered last season, when Xavi had a period when at some point almost half the team was injured, and now Flick's team is fine, I think that the loads in training also play a role.

Exactly, I still see Real Madrid as the strongest team in Champions League. They might be not smooth in qualification, but I believe they will qualify for playoff and then they will slowly improve to become a champion.

Unfortunately Real Madrid need to face two strong teams which are Liverpool and Atalanta, don't be surprised if Real Madrid will not win in that two match.

Never underestimate Real Madrid except their journey have been stopped.

The condition of Liverpool players is very good. They don't have any major problems with regards to players. So they are able to rotate players well, so that the players are maintained so that not many players are injured. This is much different from the condition of Real Madrid which has many injured players and currently the UCL format has changed, so we can see the current results. Real Madrid was unable to perform well and lost points. Another problem is that Ancelotti does not seem to have full faith in young players such as Endrick and Guller.

I still doubt Madrid's performance in this match because Liverpool is very hot this season, and they're ready to burn whoever crosses their path, which might make it very difficult for Real Madrid to walk away with three points. I could remember how I had so much confidence in Madrid in their last match against Milan, but I got disappointed and lost my bet because Milan was able to win Madrid easily in Bernabeu, talk more of Madrid playing away with a club that's topping the table of their domestic league.

Well that's the question right now with Liverpool's impressive performance this season, it's clear they really want to beat the strong candidate for the Champions League on the other hand Real Madrid has lost points in the 2 matches they played, they really need points in the remaining matches because if they continue to lose I'm not sure Madrid can secure a place in the top 8, but I think maybe this match will end in a draw or Liverpool will suffer a narrow defeat, but even though losing it doesn't have a big impact on Liverpool because he has not tasted defeat in the UCL so far.

It seems like Liverpool will have a better chance because apart from being hosts, we know Liverpool will also benefit because Real Madrid will also be playing without several of their mainstay players who are currently injured. Real Madrid's defense looks like it will really be in trouble if Ancelotti really doesn't make the best solution for it. But the young players who are prepared could surprise us with a performance that might be quite good. There is a slight doubt that I feel about Real Madrid. But Ancelotti usually always has a solution for every problem Real Madrid faces every season. And it would be very bad if Real Madrid dropped points again. At least Real Madrid must be able to hold Liverpool to a draw in this match. But if Real Madrid wins then it could be a comeback for Real Madrid in the UCL.

It depends on the results of the remaining 4 games. A win is needed to improve their ranking in the standings, but the problem is they will face Liverpool in the next game. If they lose at Anfield, they will fall into the relegation zone. They will also face Atalanta who are in top form, Madrid chances of getting 3 points are very small because Atalanta have been impressive and very productive this season.

In my opinion, Madrid chances of finishing in a better position are very small based on their performance and the opponents they face in the next 4 matches.

Real Madrid will face Liverpool upcoming match in UEFA Champion League and crucial match for Madrid after defeating by Milan last match, must secure three points if won't loss opportunity reach the top eight place get qualify to knock out round.
In other side, Liverpool have impressive performance in Champion League after winning 4 of 4 matches and leading the first position awhile. Most incredible performance of Liverpool they have faster counter attack and Madrid get difficult how to anticipation when their defend players support for moving up.

Madrid have advantage due the international break after some players got injury, Rodrygo, Militao and Valquez have injured and seems not have opportunity will play when facing Liverpool or Carlo Ancelotti have prepare youth players for filling the central defender and right defender position.

Yes, that's right and on the other hand, the position as host will really benefit Liverpool in this match. And of course it would be a bad result for Real Madrid if they failed to get full points again. A draw could happen in this match but that will not be good enough for Real Madrid who have suffered two defeats from 4 matches this season in the Champions League.

And I noticed that Real Madrid won more often when they used their classic formation, namely 4-3-3. And when this formation is used, Vini Jr actually seems to always be the hero for Real Madrid. Because the last time this formation was used was in two matches, namely the matches against Dortmund and Osasuna, we saw Vini Jr score a hat trick in both matches. And what's even stranger is that Mbappe didn't score a goal in the two matches using this formation.

Given the current state of the team, anyone who doesn’t know Real Madrid so much could easily speculate such. Maybe we have a new generation of players on the team, competing amongst themselves rather than playing like a United team but, they often get the job done when it comes to the UCL. Real Madrid sure do give it there all and you can expect that in every UCL game. I was greatly surprised how they came from 2 goals behind to beat Dortmund 4:2. Only Real Madrid could be said to be capable of such. Even with a minute on the clock, Real Madrid could do the unbelievable just to qualify. I wouldn’t underestimate them in the UCL. For the Laliga, it’s a different story.
