Final Betting Analysis: Chelsea at Real Madrid
Real dominated Chelsea. But it wasn’t really Real that dominated the Blues. It was Karim Benzema.
KB was unstoppable in the first leg. He scored all 3 Real Madrid goals. Chelsea, no doubt, will place an emphasis on stopping Benzema from making them look silly.
Carlo Ancelloti may not even play Benzema all that much. If his team has a lead, or if Chelsea is up by just a goal with 20 to 30 minutes left in the second half, Ancelloti figures to pull the French star.
In the Champions League, road goals mean more than away goals. So Real has a 2-goal advantage but a 3-goal advantage on the road.
Chelsea must score at least 2 goals to get even with Real. The Blues must score 3 goals and keep Real to no more than 1 to tie on the aggregate. It’s a lot to ask that Chelsea scores 3 goals on the road versus a team like Real.
Ancelloti won’t push his squad. Instead, he will play a defense first strategy that involves possession. The strategy could open the door for a Chelsea victory.
But RM is playing like one of the best teams in the world. So although they mustn’t beat Chelsea, they will. Real wins 2 goals to 1.
Champions League Pick: Real Madrid +137
