Real Madrid will start this UEFA Champions League campaign full of hope and optimism of claiming their sixteenth UCL title, they get underway at the Santiago Bernabeu on Tuesday night against 1993 European Cup winners Marseille.
Now, let’s take a closer look at some Champions League odds and betting angles for Tuesday’s fixture:
Real Madrid v Marseille – Tuesday, 8pm
Punters can bet on Real Madrid v Marseille with William Hill
- Real Madrid can make history on Tuesday evening, a victory for Los Blancos would make it 200 victories in the UEFA Champions League and scoring at least two goals here would also bring up 700 goals for the European giants, they’ll be the first side to hold both records.
- Xabi Alonso’s side have made the perfect start to their La Liga campaign as they look to wrestle the title back off Barcelona, they’ve won each of their first four games in the Spanish top-flight, the only side remaining still with a 100% record.
- Los Blancos have also only lost one of their last seventeen outings on home soil against French opposition, whilst they’ve also seen both teams on the scoresheet in each of their last eleven UCL home games.
——————————– - After a two-year absence, Marseille return to the UEFA Champions League proper but face a tough test on Matchday 1, especially given they’ve won only one of their previous eight UEFA club competitions away from home against Spanish opposition.
- Whilst the Phocaeans have actually lost eighteen of their last twenty-one matches in the UCL proper, Roberto De Zerbi will be hoping this side can put an end to this dismal run and pick up an important three points here.
- I think we’ll see both teams on the scoresheet on Tuesday night but i’m expecting Real Madrid to get over the line here, they’ve beaten Marseille in their previous four meetings, three of which seen both teams score.
Prediction: Both Teams To Score & Real Madrid To Win, Real Madrid 3-1 Marseille.
