Real Madrid vs Sheriff Tiraspol Prediction & Betting Tips - Champions League
by Steve Ashfield | in Champions League Predictions
Real Madrid were stopped for the first time this season, as they drew 0-0 with Villarreal in their Saturday game in La Liga. They will be looking to get back to winning ways when they play host to Champions League group stage first timers, Sheriff from Moldova. The two sides top Group D after winning their opening games. Real Madrid won 1-0 away at Inter and coming from the draw with Villarreal, they will be keen on three points here. The draw with Villarreal was the first time they failed to score this season; they have 14 goals in the last five matches and five of the eight played this season have produced over 2.5 goals. At home in the Champions League, Real Madrid are unbeaten in the last five games, with four wins in there and they’ve scored in all five. Real Madrid have scored two or more goals in eight of their last 10 Champions League matches at home with both teams scoring in eight of the 10. Karim Benzema has been a standout player for Real Madrid and goes to this game having scored five Champions League goals in five home matches.
Sheriff have been outstanding this season, coming all the way from the qualifiers to secure a place in the group stages. They top the group on goal difference, having beaten Shaktar Donetsk 2-0 on Match Day 1. Their 7-0 win over Dinamo Auto ahead of this game was their fourth clean sheet in five matches and they have now gone unbeaten in 16 matches, with 13 wins. In their last five away matches, Sheriff have two wins and three draws; they have failed to score in just one of their last 20 away matches. In their last 12 matches in the Champions League, Sheriff have been able to score in 11. This is their first ever meeting with Real Madrid; the gap between the two sides is huge as first timers at the group stage, Sheriff, meet the most successful team in the Champions League.
