Prediction

  • Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid will meet tonight in the great Champions League final which promises to be extremely hot and explosive on San Siro in Milano. If the “Galacticos” have eliminated it Manchester City, Atletico managed a great and impressive victory over Bayern Munich.

    The two sides have met in the same Final two years ago when Real Madrid won in overtime. If Atletico Madrid have two Finals plays in Champions League, Real Madrid impresses with 13 finals played. Real Madrid won 10 of their last 13 finals played and are the favourites at the trophy tonight, but despite their great shape and results this competition it is announced to be a very close tough match from the outset.

    Impressive are also the figures describing the financial strength of the two teams in Madrid! Today’s final of the San Siro will bring together players who worth more than 1 billion euros, the difference between the two groups is huge. If Real’s players are evaluated at nearly 700 million, Atletico’s group have players with a value of “only” 360 million.

    The first final played by the two teams took place on 24th May 2014 in Portugal on Estádio da Luz in Lisbon. Real Madrid won after extra time with the score 4 – 1. For this great match at the bookmakers Real Madrid is the favorite, but Atletico will not be at all an easy opponent and they will play hard for the victory.

    Real Madrid qualified for the Champions League final after they defeat the SManchester City 1-0 at home in the second leg of the semifinals.
    Real Madrid have shown a great shape lately and we expect them give all their best tonight on the field, moreover they now back in the race for the title in La Liga at only one point distance of the leader Barcelona.

    An eventual victory of Real Madrid will register a unique record at the moment in the football history, Zinedine Zidane’s band will become the winner of the eleventh Champions League trophy, an absolute record in the history of the most important competitions in the world.

    Real Madrid has not taken a single goal in 10 of the last 12 Champions League matches.

    Real wants to break the curse in Saturday’s final. Madrid played 14 games at San Siro in Milan and they have never won.
    Ronaldo has participated in 74% of Real’s goals in this season’s League (goals, assists) 3 of 4 successful.
    The problem is that Real Madrid suffered an injury scare in training on Tuesday when Cristiano Ronaldo limped out of training with a thigh injury. Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane had admitted that the Portuguese had not been in peak condition in the past few weeks, having been forced off with the same injury during Real’s La Liga fixture with Villarreal on April 20.

    On the other hand, a failure of Diego Simeone’s team, Atletico Madrid makes them to become the first team in history witch lose three finals of the Champions League in three played.
    For so long, Atletico have been in the shadows of their city rivals, and this trend continued in the 2014 final when they were beaten 4-1 by Real after extra time.

    Atletico Madrid managed to qualify in the Champions League final after the match with Bayern Munich, this final will be their third Champions League Final and they are very motivated to defeat their big rival Real Madrid. For Atletico is the time to take their revenge after the last Champions League Final of two years ago when they were defeated by Real Madrid after a very tight match in overtime 4-1.

    If Real Madrid has never won in San Siro – in the 15 matches played here and their star Cristiano Ronaldo have no victory in San Siro, Atletico Madrid have played a match on San Siro, and they record a victory, so maybe the faith will be favourable also tonight for Atletico and they will defeat this time Real Madrid.

    Atletico Madrid won 7 of the last 16 meetings with Real, is their best time for them lately against Real Madrid.
    In the last four Champions League matches, Atletico possession was less than 30%. It is the finalist with the lowest average tenure in a season of Champions League.

    Atletico Madrid have will have to put in performances a similar match as they have in their victories against Barcelona and Bayern Munich if they want to get their hands on the trophy.
    “Koke believes that his side are only out to make history on Saturday, but their motivation will be fueled by the events of 2014 final. Their ambition to avenge this defeat may swing the pendulum in their favour, but only just.”

    We expect an explosive match tonight, this competition should live up to all expectations.
