Sports Desk: There are 11 Champions League matches tonight. Real Madrid will host giants AC Milan in the big match at the Santiago Bernabeu tonight. In another match, Liverpool will face Xavi Alonso's Bayer Leverkusen. In addition, Portuguese giants Sporting Lisbon will take on Manchester City. All the three matches will start at 2 pm.
The death of two of the most successful clubs in the Champions League. Real Madrid who have won a record 15 titles are definitely ahead of AC Milan who have won the second highest 7 trophies in this match. Real has won two of the three matches played in this Champions League campaign. Kylian Mbappé, Vinicius Jr., Bellingham are in good form. But this season, Real's 'cut throat' defense. Rudiger, Militaora not in good form at all. However, right back Carvajal's injury is suffering the most.
However, the statistics against the two teams are almost equal. Real and Milan have won 6 out of 15 matches. However, the last time the Italian club beat Real Madrid was in 2009. Also AC Milan's form is not very good. They have lost two out of three Champions League matches.
Meanwhile, former Liverpool midfielder Xavi Alonso returns to Anfield today. But not as a friend, but as the commander of the enemy team. Last season, Leverkusen won the league title for the first time in the German league with the help of Alonso. Three wins in three Champions League matches this season. So it can be said that the team will take Liverpool's tough test.
However, Liverpool is always the favorite at home. Arne Salt has taken charge of the Merseyside club after taking charge of the All Reds from Klopp. Liverpool have won 100% of the Champions League so far this season. The forward line of the English giants is in great rhythm. Starting with Salah, Nunez, Diaz and Gakpora on the reserve bench, the team is scoring goals.
Another English giant will take on Portuguese powerhouse Sporting Lisbon as favourites. But injuries are a big worry for City. Along with Kevin De Bruyne, Kyle Walker, Ballon d'Or winner Rodry, Ruben Dias, John Stotson are among the starting eleven footballers who have been added to the injury list.
The in-form Sporting Lisbon will definitely want to take that chance. Coach Amorim will surely want to give the Red Devils fans some early joy by beating their city rivals City before taking over at Manchester United on November 11.
Besides, there are two matches at half past twelve. Slovan Bratislava will face Dinamo Zagreb and Girona will face PSV. Juventus-Lille, Celtic-Leipzig, Bologna-Monaco, Borussia Dortmund-Sturm Graz, Shakhtar Donetsk-Young Boys will take the field at two o'clock. Besides, Aston Villa will play against Club Brases.
