REAL MADRID-JUVENTUS (22:00)



Wednesday's big game in Madrid between Real Madrid and Juventus is expected with great interest. Real Madrid is coming off an away win over Getafe in the league, already counting two wins in as many games in the League Phase, which gives them confidence and confidence for the continuation of the competition. On the contrary, Juventus comes from a 2-0 defeat by Como and counts two draws in the Champions League,something that puts them in a state of "burnout" and increases the pressure for a win in Madrid.

The task for the Italians will be extremely difficult, as they will face a Real team that at the "Santiago Bernabeu" wants to achieve its third consecutive victory to significantly enhance the chances of direct qualification to the groups. The Spanish team will rely on its strength at home, the quality of its midfield and the need to continue the winning streak,while Juventus will need strategic precision and discipline to get a positive result in a demanding away match.

Real is a logical favorite, which has the momentum.

In their last meeting in the USA for the Club World Cup, Real won 1-0.


CHELSEA-AJAX (22:00)Big



favourites to achieve their second victory in the League Phase against Ajax. The Blues returned to action as they did in the break. With a victory over Nottingham Forest, which was the third in a row in England and Europe. Ajax, on the other hand, continues to disappoint. They lost to Alkmaar 0-2 and extended the negative streak to three games.

Chelsea are facing several absences ahead of today's match. Cole Palmer remains sidelined due to an adductor injury, as does Mykhailo Mudryk, while Benoit Batiasil and Romeo Lavia are doubtful due to muscle problems. Enzo Fernandes has a minor knee problem and his participation in the match is uncertain. Joao Pedro and Reece James are expected to be available. Trevo Chaloba returned from suspension,but Wesley Fofana, although he has recovered from a concussion, has not been called up to the squad.

Ajax does not record any significant absences.

The two teams met in the 2019/20 Champions League group stage. In the match in the Netherlands, Chelsea won 0-1, while in England the game ended in a 4-4 draw.


EINTRACHT-LIVERPOOL (22:00)



A difficult test in Germany for Liverpool, who are on a bad moon and are expected to use the match against Eintracht as an opportunity to recover. The Reds have four consecutive defeats, with the last one against Manchester United with a 1-2 draw.

Slot's team must react and make its counterattack against a team that is very calculable at home.

However, Eintracht is not in good shape either, with a draw and two defeats in recent games, while weaknesses in their defense are evident.

The two teams have three points each and Liverpool is considered the favorite.

In the UEFA Cup, in the distant 1972, they were their only matches, with Liverpool advancing to the next stage.
