Champions League Tips: Leipzig v Real Madrid

On 13/02/2024, RB Leipzig and Real Madrid will meet in the Champions League Achtelfinale. My prediction for this match:
L. Openda to score and over 2.5 goals at 3.25 at bet365.

Leipzig have scored 2 goals in each of their last 4 games and have not looked particularly solid defensively, apart from against Union Berlin (who are having a poor season). They conceded 3 against Leverkusen, 5 against Stuttgart and 2 against Augsburg. Real Madrid are coming off a 4-0 win over surprise package Girona. In their last 9 games, only Getafe have not conceded a goal. RB's most important player at the moment is arguably Openda. He has scored 15 goals in 21 Bundesliga games and is third in the scoring charts behind Kane and Guirassy. In the 6 CL games he has scored 4 times, averaging! minutes per CL game. He has scored in 9 of the last 11 Bundesliga games, the last 4 in a row.

I can imagine him scoring 3 goals in the last two games. 3 goals, and one goal at home is certainly something Openda can be trusted with. Obviously, the bet is a bit riskier, given that the teams tend to start on the back foot in such important games. Nevertheless, I think the odds of 3.25 are a good bet and therefore recommend this tip.

Bet: Goalscorer Openda and over 2,5 Goals

The best odds are with bet365: 3,25
