Real Madrid are the favourites here because they are the kings of this competition. Carlos Ancelottis’s side is so sensational in this competition, especially in the business end. The White Angels are undefeated in the competition and it will take something so special for the Germans to break down the Spanish champions.
Borussia Dortmund under Edin Terzic has been very inconsistent throughout the season but has been more than fantastic in the UCL. The job at hand is so difficult but they will fancy their chance. Dortmund has proven in the UCL that no one knows what they will present on the night like what they did against Atlético Madrid and Paris Saint Germain in the knockout stages.
