The battle between Real Madrid and RB Leipzig was like a passionate bullfight. In the first leg, Real Madrid won a valuable away victory with a score of 1-0 with a superb goal from Dias and grasped the initiative to advance. However, this slight one-goal advantage, like a thin layer of ice, could be broken at any time. Therefore, Real Madrid still need to go all out to defend the fruits of their victory.
In last weekend's league game, Real Madrid drew 2-2 away at Valencia, and the late goal was blown for a sigh. In the first leg of the duel with Leipzig, Real Madrid did not have a clear advantage on the field, and the number of shots on goal was equal to that of the opponent, which undoubtedly added a bit of suspense and pressure to this game.
Leipzig, for their last round of a 4-1 win away at Bochum, ended a nearly three-month winless runaway. However, they are only one point away from the top four in the standings, and the pressure of fighting on multiple fronts can be imagined. To add insult to injury, the absence of the team's main defenders Krustman and Simakan due to injury has undoubtedly brought a huge challenge to the team's defense.
In contrast, Real Madrid have the advantage in squad integrity. Defender Antonio Rudiger, who missed the first leg, has returned and his return has undoubtedly added a solid barrier to the team's defence. Real Madrid are backed by 1 goal in terms of statistics, which is enough to prove their absolute superiority over Leipzig in terms of fundamentals and head-to-head history.
To sum up, Real Madrid continue to be bullish on their winning prospects at home. They will face this crucial match with more enthusiasm and fighting spirit. Let's hope that Real Madrid can continue the winning streak and bring a wonderful victory to the fans!
