Real Madrid – Stuttgart. Forecast and announcement for the Champions League match

On September 17, the match of the 1st round of the Champions League will be held at the Santiago Bernabeu, in which “Real Madrid” will meet with “Stuttgart”. The match will start at 22:00 Kyiv time.

Real Madrid (Madrid)

The team remained for the last season with the head coach, Ancelotti, although he could only win the Spanish Cup in 2022/2023. And this trust of Florentino Perez was justified, because the team was able to win a number of titles, including the one in which they already won the Champions League. But after the summer holidays, despite the star reinforcement in the form of Mbappe, there were already several misfires. They did not win away from Mallorca or Las Palmas (both away matches brought 1:1), already by the summer they allowed Barcelona to take a lead of 4 points, which is quite a lot by Spanish football standards. On the field, Real Sociedad, after a break in the national team games, managed to win seemingly confidently, 2:0. But, on the other hand, both Vinysius Junior and Mbappe scored from the penalty spot.

Stuttgart

The club periodically fires. The mansion, of course, remains the conquest of the silver salad bowl under Armina Fe. But the last season was also good for the Swabians. They managed to bypass even Bavaria and placed themselves under the incredible Bayer, in the second position. And Seru Gerassa managed to score 28 goals. True, the Guinean is already in Borussia Dortmund, and this is not the only change in the team. But, most importantly, Sebastian Heness, the breakthrough coach, remained, despite rumors of interest, including from Bavaria. Not everything works out now: with Bayer in the Super Cup, leading in the draw, in the end they lost on penalties. In the Bundesliga, after 1:3 in Freiburg, they drew 3:3 at home with Mainz, and only they defeated Preussen 5:0 in the cup. Before the start of the Champions League, in Mönchengladbach, Borussia managed to win 3:1 with a double by the newcomer, Demirovich.

Statistics of personal meetings

We quite expect the Swabians to come to the capital of Spain for the first time.

Forecast

Bookmakers are skeptical of the Germans. Real Madrid may be far from the peak, but in practice they will beat the guests with a handicap of -1.5 goals (coefficient – 1.79).
