The last encounter between the two teams was highly contested, worthy of a Champions League final, with the Germans performing better in the first half. However, as the saying goes, “if you don’t score, you concede.” In the second half, Real Madrid asserted their game and won the title with goals from Carvajal and Vinícius Júnior.

The upcoming match, however, presents a different scenario compared to their last meeting. In the current edition, Borussia leads the group with a 100% success rate, having defeated Brugge 3-0 in their opener and thrashed Celtic 7-1 in the second round.

Meanwhile, the Spaniards have had a modest campaign so far. After starting with a 3-1 victory over Stuttgart at home, Carlo Ancelotti’s team suffered a 1-0 defeat to Lille in the following round and currently sits in 17th place.

For the match, Real Madrid is expected to field: Courtois; Lucas Vázquez, Militão, Rüdiger, Mendy; Bellingham, Tchouaméni, Valverde; Rodrygo, Mbappé, Vinícius Júnior. The Germans are likely to line up with: Kobel; Ryerson, Anton, Schlotterbeck, Bensebaini; Can, Sabitzer; Malen, Brandt, Gittens; Guirassy. BB Score, your go-to place for football results.
