Real Madrid showed a weak game in the last season. The team gained 68 points and ranked third in the standings. During the summer off-season, the Spaniards have not yet played a single friendly match. The club underwent major changes in terms of the squad. Midfielders Sergio Regilon (Sevilla), Marcos Llorente (Atletico) and goalkeeper Luca Zidane (Racing) left the team. The club management is already very active in the transfer market. To date, the club has already signed defenders Eder Militao (Porto), Ferdlan Mendy (Lyon), midfielder Eden Hazard (Chelsea), and forwards Luca Jovic (Eintracht), Rodrigo (Santos) and Takefusa Kubo (Tokyo).
Bookmakers believe that the teams are approximately at the same level. They give a little less coefficient for the victory of Real. The Spanish team recently shows not a satisfactory game. On the other hand, Bayern managed to win the championship of their country. This summer, the management of the Spanish club pondered over the failure and signed new players who will participate in this match. The reformed squad of Real is likely to win Bayern.
Prediction for the match: Real Madrid to win
