15/1 Liverpool vs Real Madrid Bet Builder (FB)

Mac Allister is back in the lineup after missing the weekend game following the international break. This season, he’s committed a foul in every Champions League match and all but one of his 10 Premier League starts. He’s already been booked twice in the UCL and four times in the league. Up against players like Bellingham and Camavinga—who are experts at drawing fouls—he could easily find himself in trouble with the referee again.

Guler to register 1+ shots on target looks promising, especially with Rodrygo unavailable, meaning Guler is likely to start in his place. His minutes have been limited so far, but this is a big opportunity for the young talent. Despite only starting four league games, he’s managed 2+ shots in each and 1+ shot on target in three of them. Over the weekend, he impressed with 3 shots on target and an assist. Even in the one Champions League match where he played more than 20 minutes, he made an impact, coming on to take 2 shots, including 1 on target.

The academy graduate is set to make his Champions League debut due to Real Madrid’s injury crisis at the back. He made his senior debut at the weekend, where he committed 2 fouls and drew 2 as well. While there’s little data to rely on beyond that game, this is a massive occasion for the young defender. Coming up against Liverpool’s attack in a must-win game at Anfield, under the lights, is no easy task. The pressure of the UCL debut in such an intense environment makes it likely he’ll commit at least one foul, and the lack of data could mean we’re getting good value here.

Liverpool have been great at picking up corners, averaging 4.5 per game in the UCL and hitting 4+ in 75% of their matches. In the Premier League, they’re even better, averaging 6.17 corners per game. Real Madrid, meanwhile, tend to give up a fair few, conceding an average of 4.31 corners per game in La Liga and 4.25 in the UCL. They’ve allowed 4 or more corners in 75% of their UCL games.
