| Real Madrid will play Atletico Madrid in the San Siro Stadium for the Champions League finals |
FIXTURE :
The game will kick off at 19:45 (UK time)
00:15 (IST) [Sunday]
LIVE STREAM :
In case you cant watch the match live or on TV, it's not a problem this time as youtube provide the live stream for free.
SQUAD :
Real Madrid will most probably miss the services of Varane but there is no concern regarding Ronaldo and he is fit to play
Atletico Madrid dont have much injury concerns with Deigo Godin recovered from his thigh injury
THE TALKING POINT :
Atletico Madrid are in a good run recently but their slip against Levante must be kept in mind whereas Real Madrid have an excellent form so far, winning the last 12 games in the La Liga. They provided a serious threat to Barcelona in the league during the latter part of the season inspite of Ronaldo missing many matches. So they will be confident in going towards this game.
El Derby Madrileno :
Atletico Madrid holds the upper hand in terms of recent fixtures to their neighboring fellows. In the League, they beat Real once and drew the other time.
In terms of European competitions, Real have won all the 3 ties with Atletico
Speaking of all time records, both the clubs have locked their horns in 212 games with Real Madrid winning 107 times and Atletico 54 times with 51 draws. So the morale of both the teams looks to be the same and no team is less equal to the other!
THE BATTLE :
For such a prestigious cup the battle wont be just on the ground but also off-ground if there is such a word or maybe a verbal battle.
Bale : "No atletico player's will make it in Real Madrid's team. Real are better in all position"
His statement has received a lot of criticism from the other club fans and he now has a lot to prove them
Torres : "Champions League finals is the game of my life"
D.Simeone : When asked will you too say "Victory is sweet but revenge is sweeter" if he wins replied with most of the greatest answers. "There is no such thing as revenge in football, or in life for that matter, just new opportunities. 'Revenge' is a negative word, because it harks back to a defeat; on the other hand, 'opportunity' is about optimism, confidence and what's to come, and that's what we want to show in the Champions League...."
A great man indeed with his speeches !
THE PREDICTION :
The FF Prediction (thats what we call it) , considering the factors mentioned above and the history and all and their path so far to reach this stage, it is quite hard to come up with one club! But yet that's our job, so the final verdict is that, the one to clinch the trophy will be....
ATLETICO MADRID
I swear that I aint a Barca fan but just a neutral guy giving predictions! Fell free to share your views on this post !
