Here is my prediction, pick, and the odds for the Champions League Final between Liverpool and Real Madrid.
Champions League Prediction
Real Madrid and Liverpool have previously met on eight occasions in European competition, with Los Blancos picking up four wins compared, while the most recent encounter ended in a draw. Liverpool is winless in their previous three games against Real Madrid losing the last UCL final against the Spanish champions. These two European giants have lifted the most prestigious European trophy 19 times between them, with Real claiming a record 13 triumphs.
Benzema only needs one half-chance to find the back of the net so we expect him to produce at least two shots or target. Keeping the likes of Karim Benzema, Junior Vinicius on one side and Mo Salah, and Sadio Mane on the other side, at bay in regular time is almost impossible so we do expect goals.
Five of Real’s last six Champions League games have seen at least three goals scored. Liverpool is averaging 2.0 goals-per-game themselves over their last 10 games, while Los Blancos average 2.5 over their last 10. The last six Champions League finals have been decided in 90 minutes.
Liverpool vs. Real Madrid Player Props
Pick 1: Karim Benzema Over 1.5 shots on target at +130 (Bet $100 to win $130)
Pick 2: Casemiro to be booked at +170 (Bet $100 to win $170)

He knows everything about the top 5 European leagues, Champions League and Europa League and he is well known for his “trade-mark” “Alex Classic” bet (both teams to score and over 2.5 goals in the match).

He’s all about positive energy, respect, and long-term profit and if you ever hear “Alex’s last-minute goal” that means he did it again winning a bet in the last minute of the game, so never lose hope.
