Betting suggestion:

This is a match between teams of great technical-tactical competence and for this reason there is no clear favorite. Even so, and because of playing at home, we expect the Madrid players to enter the field with an offensive strategy, with a middle block, putting aside a possible surprise on the part of Chelsea. On the other hand, Thomas Tuchel's pupils have a very interesting counterattack and, most likely, they will have several chances to taste the foot. So, and taking into account the defensive weaknesses, risking in favor of goals is a good option.
