Betting Tips
Driven by a feeling of inequity from the previous weekend, Real Madrid aims to win the second leg of their Champions League last-16 match against RB Leipzig at the Bernabeu on Wednesday. Arriving at their headquarters with a 1-0 lead from the first leg three weeks ago, Carlo Ancelotti’s team is hardly invincible against their Bundesliga rivals.
Real Madrid vs RB Leipzig
In this Champions League Round of 16 match in Germany, Real Madrid leads Red Bull Leipzig 1-0 after the first leg of the match. It was a close game, and Brahim Diaz’s special goal was needed to break the tie. Even after Sunday’s 2-2 draw with Valencia, in which England international Jude Bellingham was sent off in extra time, Real has only lost once all season in both the league and the Champions League. As a result, they lead the La Liga standings by seven points.
The 14-time Champions League winners will now be entirely focused on completing the task on Wednesday night against a Leipzig squad who failed to score in their lone prior visit to the Bernabeu, which resulted in a 2-0 loss to the Spanish.
RB Leipzig defeated VfL Bochum 4-1 on the road on Saturday to prepare for this difficult task versus Madrid. Leipzig earned a superb victory, especially considering they had trailed 1-0 after just seven minutes, thanks to three goals in the second half in four minutes that blitzed the home team. Leipzig has not triumphed away from home in the Bundesliga since defeating Dortmund 3-2 on December 9.
They have won two of their three Champions League away games thus far. They also put on a valiant display against Manchester City in the game they lost, leading 2-0 at one point before City scored three goals in the second half.

Verdict
Los Blancos finished first in Group C of the Champions League with all of the available points. At home, they have been playing flawlessly, dropping only one of their 27 games all season to sit atop the standings.
With just 25 goals given up in both league and continental commitments, Madrid’s defensive stability along with the offensive skill of players like Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Junior—who have seven goal contributions in the Champions League this season—should be too much for Marco Rose’s team to handle.
Leipzig ended their four-game losing skid away from home last time out, defeating Bochum 4-1. However, in their only visit to the Bernabeu in 2022, Leipzig was defeated 2-0 by Los Blancos.
The Red Bulls’ recent success scoring goals away from home, as seen by their nine straight-away goals across all competitions, is one advantage they may have going into this game.
Leipzig has the players to score on Wednesday, but it is difficult to ignore a win for the Spanish team because Carlo Ancelotti’s team has won 15 of its 18 home games across all competitions and lost none.
