Club Brugge found themselves in a very difficult group of the Champions League. It was very difficult to count on reaching the playoffs against Manchester City and PSG. At the same time, Philippe Clement’s team clearly hoped to compete with Leipzig for the third line in the quartet and today they are coping with their task more than confidently, being on the third line and ahead of the bulls by three points. This advantage was achieved due to a 2:1 victory over the main competitor in the struggle for a ticket to the Europa League away in the first round. And the draw with PSG, which was sensationally won in the first round, leaves the Belgians a chance for the playoffs.
Madrid beat Shakhtar Donetsk twice and took the first position in the standings. Real Madrid took revenge for two defeats last year, while today we need to repay the debt to the Moldovan team for an unfortunate home defeat in the second round of the current Champions League tournament. Before this game the creamy had three victories and nine points, which brought the first place and practically closed the question with going to the next stage. In the Spanish Championship, Carlo Ancelotti’s wards managed to reach the first position in 13 rounds. On account of “galacticos” are nine victories and three peaceful outcomes, which brought 30 points. The gap from the closest pursuer is only one point. It is impossible not to note the best indicator of the team in the attack, which hit the opponents’ goal 32 times. Karim Benzema remains the best sniper with 10 goals on his account. Today will not be able to enter the field Hazard, Bale, Valverde and Ceballos, who has an ankle injury.
