Leipzig Team News
Leipzig had a very weak start of the season. Because of this, board management decided to fire Domenico Tedesco already in September. Marco Rose was hired instead. Former Borussia Dortmund head coach put things in order in a very short time and Leipzig are looking much better now.
Rose stabilized situation in the Bundesliga, so Leipzig is currently in eighth place and they expect to get even closer to top 4. In the Champions League, they beat Celtic twice and they came one step closer to round of 16. Next week, they will play in Poland against Shakhtar and most likely that match will decide the second position in this group. Leipzig played an incredible game in Augsburg on Saturday. They were losing 3:0 until 73rd minute, but they score three goals in the last 20 minutes for 3:3. That’s just proof of how much Rose has changed the mentality of this team.
This match against Real Madrid will be a kind of gift for Leipzig. Even in case of defeat, they will have a real chance to advance, so they can play completely relieved and without pressure. In such a situation, they might succeed in knocking down reigning European champion.
Real Madrid Team News
Carlo Ancelotti and Real Madrid are a winning combination. An experienced Italian head coach was exactly what this club needed. Extraordinary results have been achieved in last 12 months and at this moment they are by far the best Spanish club.
Real Madrid confirmed their supremacy eight days ago when they defeated Barcelona at the “Santiago Bernabeu”. Main goal is to defend the title in La Liga, but with this form they are one of the main favorites for trophy in the Champions League as well. Federico Valverde and Junior Vinicius are playing the best football of their lives, plus Karim Benzema is simply a goal machine. When inspired, Real Madrid can beat anyone.
Inspirations may be lacking in Leipzig, at least defensive ones. In the last round, Real will play at home against last placed Celtic and they will probably finish in first place even if they lose in Germany tomorrow.
