Bellingham, Vini to Come Up Big for Real Madrid

Real Madrid have had to battle through plenty of adversity throughout the past year. They’ve lost three key figures in David Alaba, Thibaut Courtois and Eder Militao to ACL injuries, and they’ve also had to deal with the absence of last season’s top scorer, Karim Benzema, who joined Al-Ittihad. Rather than spend big on a center forward to replace him, Real have counted on Jude Bellingham to bang in the goals and combine with the Brazilian duo of Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo in attack.

After making a name for himself at Borussia Dortmund, Bellingham joined Real Madrid last summer for €103 million. Since then, he’s been unleashed in an attacking midfield role and registered 23 goals and 12 assists in 41 appearances (including two extra-time winners vs. Barcelona).

Bellingham spearheaded Real Madrid to the league title, and he has been voted as the La Liga Player of the Season. At +160, it’s extremely tempting to go with the “law of the ex” and pick Bellingham to find the back of the net against his former club.

However, if there is one player who’s capable of overshadowing Bellingham, it’s Vinicius Junior. The Brazilian winger has emerged as a superstar for Real Madrid, and at 23 years old, there’s an argument to be made that he has been the best Champions League footballer since Cristiano Ronaldo’s departure from Juventus.

Two years ago, Vinicius scored the winning goal against Liverpool in the UEFA Champions League Final, and since then, he’s merely taken his game up another level. After picking up back-to-back Man of the Match awards in the semifinals against Bayern Munich, all eyes will be on Vini for what promises to be an enthralling final in London.

Don’t overthink this – pick Vinicius to get 2+ shots on goal at +152 in your soccer parlay bets.

Real to Continue their European Dominance

There’s something different about Real Madrid when it comes to high-stakes Champions League fixtures. Like Tom Brady taking the field during a Super Bowl, or Luka Doncic firing up a shot from 30 feet out, Real exhibits an aura that is simply unmatched, as if the royal badge on their chest gives them magical superpowers.

As opposed to BVB manager Edin Terzic, whose sole managerial honor came with the 2020-21 DFB-Pokal, Carlo Ancelotti has won two Champions League titles apiece with Milan and Real Madrid. The veteran Italian coach exudes calm and composure, and this is transmitted to his players.

Even when they’re up against an attacking onslaught, even when they’re missing key figures, Real finds a way to win. Los Blancos haven’t lost a Champions League Final since 1981, and we’re not expecting that to change in our Champions League picks.

Best Bets: Real Madrid to win and under 4.5 goals (-105)
