Liverpool vs Real Madrid Prediction & Preview | The Analyst (The Analyst)

Liverpool host Spanish giants Real Madrid at Anfield in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday night. We look at the Opta supercomputer's prediction and ...

The total goals scored by Liverpool in the 2022-23 competition (17) is below that of only Benfica (18) Bayern Munich (19) and Napoli (20). No player has been involved in more for the club in 2022-23, with his total four more than Karim Benzema (20 – 16 goals, four assists). The Belgian made nine saves against Liverpool in this game, the most on record by a goalkeeper in a single UEFA Champions League final (since 2003-04). The Opta supercomputer predicts that Liverpool will defeat Real Madrid at Anfield on Tuesday night, giving them a 42.8% chance of doing so. Salah’s seven goals in six UCL appearances are only one fewer than he’s managed in 22 Premier League games this season (eight), but he’ll have to improve his scoring record against Spanish clubs in the competition. After losing their opening match of the 2022-23 UEFA Champions League campaign (4-1 vs Napoli), Liverpool have won each of their last five European matches. Vinícius Júnior was Real Madrid’s hero in the 1-0 UCL final win over Liverpool last May. This was Klopp’s third UCL final loss – the most of any manager, while only Juventus (five) have lost more Champions League finals than Liverpool (three). The Reds haven’t won any of their last six meetings with Real Madrid, drawing one and losing five of these games – this is their longest ever run of winless games against a single opponent in the history of the European Cup/Champions League. Real will be making their fourth trip to Anfield to face Liverpool in the UEFA Champions League. This is a big shift from the early European meetings between these two clubs, with Liverpool winning each of their first three matches versus Real Madrid between 1981 and 2009. Liverpool host Spanish giants Real Madrid at Anfield in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday night.

Liverpool vs Real Madrid: Jurgen Klopp says Reds have to play 'two ... (Sky Sports)

Liverpool host the first leg of their Champions League round-of-16 tie against Real Madrid on Tuesday; Jurgen Klopps side beat Newcastle on Saturday to earn ...

"We have these two results and hopefully we can build on that but we need to play a super game, we need to play two super games, to be honest, to get through. However, Karim Benzema is set to return after his absence at the weekend. Vinicius has scored three goals in his last three meetings with Liverpool, and ahead of their latest meeting, Klopp was asked whether the player's actions on the pitch were antagonistic. "We played a good game and could have won the game. That he's doing something on the pitch which could cause what kind of things are happening to him? "This is that team, the competition and you can learn from them, definitely. I have no problem with that because if you don't play your best you don't have a chance - Real Madrid don't have to play their best and still have a chance! Here, it was a really good 0-0, we let them work hard and that was good. There's a history in the last few years. "But this is now, same clubs, different teams, different times. Before that, we played there on the training ground and here in an empty stadium. "I'm really happy we can play now, four weeks ago it would have been different, but life is all about timing.

Rafa Benitez on where Liverpool vs. Real Madrid will be won and lost (Daily Mail)

Rafa Benitez, who led Liverpool to two Champions League finals, winning one, casts his eye over both sides and picks out where he feels the tie will be won ...

Real’s advantage in the past was having more experience in important European games but Liverpool have a lot of players like that now. In March 2009, when we played at Anfield after winning in the Bernabeu, we destroyed them in the first 20 minutes. They will start with real intensity, pushing and pushing to regain the ball high. They will offer balance to the midfield and that will be difficult for Liverpool to deal with. In their absence, Dani Ceballos and Fede Valverde will be even more key for Real. How can Liverpool stop Vinicius Jr exposing the space behind Trent?

We simulated Liverpool vs Real Madrid to get a Champions League ... (Liverpool Echo)

Liverpool host Real Madrid in the Champions League on Tuesday night, so we simulated the first-leg clash to try and predict the score.

FIFA 23 predicts that Liverpool could pick up a huge win against Real Madrid, beating Los Blancos 1-0 in the simulation. Andrew Robertson's floated cross into the box was met by the gloves of Courtois, with the 'keeper surging off his line to punch clear. This is the fourth time in the last six years that the Reds have faced Madrid in the Champions League knockouts, the last being the 1-0 defeat to Carlo Ancelotti's side in the 2021/22 final. The pick of Courtois' saves came in the 83rd minute to deny substitute Naby Keita. Gakpo held off his marker to open up an avenue for a pass, and Bajcetic found the Dutchman with a perfectly weighted through ball. Gakpo latched onto the pass and fired a powerful strike across goal, flying past Courtois and into the top corner. The Reds would be hoping the 'keeper won't produce another performance like last season's Champions League final, but they managed to break the deadlock after nine minutes through Cody. Liverpool almost took the lead from the go, with Mohamed Salah's curling shot towards the far corner saved by Thibaut Courtois before the Belgian saved Diogo Jota's strike on the rebound. Recent form impacts players' ratings in FIFA 23, so the Blues squad was lower-rated than usual heading into this simulation.

Liverpool vs Real Madrid - Champions League: Live score, team ... (Daily Mail)

Liverpool will be looking to build a first leg advantage when they take on Champions League holders Real Madrid at Anfield in their last-16 clash.

It's been a poor season at Anfield with Liverpool nowhere near a title run, so you would think what hope do they have of winning the Champions League? ...and that includes a return up front for Karim Benzema who had been a doubt through fatigue and missed the 2-0 win over Osasuna. Vinicius Junior collects a pass on the edge of the box and in just a fraction of a second he somehow picks out the bottom corner across goal. Madrid have a history off pulling top Champions League performances out of underwhelming league campaigns. Could you have imagined walking out onto a pitch at Anfield with the responsibility of taking on Real Madrid? Does it have the desired effect on the players? [CHRIS SUTTON: Liverpool fans trying to disrupt Real Madrid's preparations by setting off fireworks in the middle of the night won't work... I'm sure those Rangers fans got a good chuckle out of Celtic's striker standing outside in his dressing gown in the wee hours, waiting to be let back in. 45min: Three minutes will be added on to a pulsating first half - one where Real Madrid go fractions to taking the lead in. 53min: Slow start to the half for Liverpool but should they have a penalty here? 50min: Of course it means this crazy game takes another turn to continue the bonkers first half, as Real Madrid have come from 2-0 down to lead. I'll leave you with that to help digest one of the more remarkable games I have seen in recent times.

Thanks to [Thibaut Courtois](https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/thibaut-courtois) and [Alisson](https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/alisson) Becker, a Champions League classic doubled up as a Loris Karius tribute night. But, as the German [prepares for his first cup final ](https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/loris-karius-newcastle-carabao-cup-final-b2285273.html)since the 2018 [Champions League](https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/champions-league), two who have been named the best goalkeeper in the world [have joined him](https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/liverpool-real-madrid-score-result-champions-league-b2286885.html). “It’s a tough one to take in the end.

This isn’t the Liverpool of last season and the reigning champions of this competition came to Merseyside full of belief of taking not just a positive result, but a win. It only served as set-up to one of the great Champions League comebacks, and one of the great Champions League away performances. [Liverpool](https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/liverpool-fc)’s failure to match the one modern super club with a better Champions League record continues, and in a worse way than ever before. He was defeated twice in the first 14 minutes of the Anfield rematch: once by a rarity – a Darwin Nunez backheel – and then by something still more freakish. This time around though - even with two [Liverpool ](https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/liverpool-fc)wins recently - Europe’s finest from last season could have been forgiven for thinking maybe there was an element of that which might ring true this time around. Anfield erupted 10 minutes later when a horrendous miscontrol from Real goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois left Mohamed Salah with the simple task of slotting the ball home to make it 2-0.

By now Liverpool were being ripped apart at the back, and Karim Benzema helped himself to a brace as the visitors ran riot. After that we were back in the game. In a repeat of last season’s final, Liverpool were looking to prove they really had turned a corner after recent wins over Everton and Newcastle, and were well on track to do so. A Vinicius Jr brace got Real level before the break, before Eder Militao completed the turnaround just two minutes into the second-half. Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah gave the Reds the perfect start, two goals up and flying inside 14 minutes. By now Liverpool were being ripped apart at the back, and

Real Madrid have flown Toni Kroos to Liverpool today after the German was originally ruled out. He is on the bench. One must presume he flew directly by private ...

It was two years and one day since Ancelotti won a historic victory as Everton manager at Anfield, the first time the club had done so in 22 years. We said to the players to keep calm, keep a cool head and get the game under control.” Vinicius was the youngest to score two for the away side at Anfield in European competition since a teenage Johan Cruyff did so for Ajax against Bill Shankly’s Liverpool in 1966. They had restored something of the season’s momentum with two successive wins in the Premier League but then came this heavy defeat that again asks questions as to what it is that is coming after Klopp’s great five-year cycle of 2017-2022. There was Luka Modric at 37, still the orchestrator of a powerful force, and Karim Benzema with two second half goals. What followed was a great Real Madrid performance pegged somewhere between the passing of one era and the dawning of another at this club where the succession is in good hands.

Liverpool v Real Madrid: Champions League last 16, first leg – live (The Guardian)

Minute-by-minute report: Join Rob Smyth for updates as last year's finalists go head-to-head once more.

[Real Madrid](https://www.theguardian.com/football/realmadrid) were 2-0 down and the definitive shambles. 52 min Vinicius Jr beats Alexander-Arnold again – that’s becoming a painful mismatch – and wins a corner off Henderson. Rodrygo played a one-two-three on the edge of the area with Benzema, whod stretched to hit a tame left-footed shot that took a big deflection off Gomez and wrongfooted Alisson. The corner is cleared as far as Bajcetic, 30 yards out, and he curls a few yards wide. Benzema walked past the outrushing Alisson and curled the ball past the two defenders on the line with his left foot. [Liverpool](https://www.theguardian.com/football/liverpool) can make this 5-3 they won’t be totally out of the tie. It’s a fascinating change of direction, buying the next generation of stars rather than finished products. 81 min “‘Bit early for the Real fans to be olé-ing with 25 minutes to go, even if they are 4-2 up,’ I thought,” says Anthony Speet. [Liverpool](https://www.theguardian.com/football/liverpool) can afford a midfield overhaul, it’s more of a case that they can’t afford not to,” says Stephen Carr. He scored again in freakish circumstances after a dreadful mistake from Alisson, and then Real took There was a big chance at 2-0 [it was at 2-1], a bit of a scuffle on the line; if that goes in it’s a big moment in the match. It’s hard to sum it up straight after the game – mixed feelings, frustration with the result, but for large parts of the first half, definitely, I thought we performed well.
