Match Preview
Matchday one heralded Real Madrid’s third three-goal defeat in four UEFA Champions League (UCL) matches, with Real losing the first half of each reverse by a 2-0 scoreline. However, Real have won all 16 of their UCL group stage home openers under the current format (since 2003/04), doing so by a single-goal margin just once since the 2013/14 campaign. |
In addition to that, five of Real’s last six UCL group stage home openers have seen them win both halves, with the 13-time winners keeping a clean sheet in three of their last four victories within that group. |
Club Brugge opened their own UCL campaign with a 0-0 draw, making it their third group game in a row to produce that exact scoreline. Overall, four of their last five UCL group stage games have ended level and produced under 2.5 goals. |
However, Real will underestimate Brugge at their peril, with the ‘Blauw-Zwart’ going unbeaten in their last three away UCL matches played against a team with a higher UEFA coefficient (W1, D2). Across those three games, Brugge have averaged 2.33 goals per-match. |
Players to watch: After netting a first-half opener in Real’s last home win, Vinícius Júnior has his first goal of the campaign. |
Brugge’s Hans Vanaken netted a brace inside the opening 30 minutes of his club’s last group stage away win against a team with a higher coefficient. |
Stat attack: Domestically strong, Real’s last four La Liga home wins have seen them net the decisive goal ten minutes either side of the 45-minute mark. |
All of Real’s UCL home matches in the group stage of 2018/19 produced exactly three match goals. |
Including qualifiers, none of Brugge’s last eight UCL defeats have seen them lose both halves. |
