Match review RB Salzburg vs Real Madrid, 8:00 a.m. June 27: Class speaks

RB Salzburg vs Real Madrid form

Traveling to the land of the stars and stripes with the status of a top European team, Real Madrid is expected to easily win a ticket to the knockout round.

Especially in group H, the Spanish Royal team only has to face names that are completely underdogs such as RB Salzburg, Al Hilal or Pachuca.

The plan of new coach Xabi Alonso and his students suddenly went off track in the opening match. After being held to a 1-1 draw by Al Hilal, Real were forced to make more efforts in the remaining two matches.

Without much difficulty in defeating Pachuca (winning 3-1), Los Blancos will have to enter the decisive 90 minutes at Lincoln Financial Field to decide the ticket to the next round.

Remember, the White Vultures are still at risk of being eliminated if they leave empty-handed. If they are too subjective and underestimate their opponents, Real Madrid could have to pay the price.

But overall, Xabi Alonso's team is still the team with the best chance of advancing. Leading the group with 4 points, more than RB Salzburg in goal difference, the Madrid giants will only need a draw to qualify for the knockout round.

However, to prove their position as the top candidate for the championship, Real Madrid promises to enter the field with the goal of winning. This is not too difficult a task for Los Blancos because the correlation between the two fronts exists a large gap.

Not far away, in the Champions League classification stage last season, Real Madrid had a big win over RB Salzburg with a score of 5-1.

Compared to a few seasons ago, the representative from Austria has also declined a lot and is no longer a strong enough obstacle to create a surprising mark.

In the opening match, RB Salzburg had to struggle to overcome the weakest team in the group, Pachuca, with a score of 2-1.

Entering the match against Al Hilal, the team under coach Thomas Letsch had to be quite lucky to keep a clean sheet against the strong attack from the opponent.

Overall, RB Salzburg is no longer the formidable name it was a few years ago. Although currently ranked 2nd, Bidstrup and his teammates face a great risk of having to stop at the group stage.

Because in the match at the same time, Al Hilal will most likely achieve the goal of winning all 3 points against the eliminated team, Pachuca.

Real Madrid's approach to the match will likely depend significantly on the previous outcome in Group G.

In case Man City defeats Juventus to take the top spot, Alonso's team will probably be determined to win to avoid the Premier League giants in the knockout round.

Of course, because they still need to ensure their goal of advancing first, the possibility of Los Blancos being too lenient with RB Salzburg is almost unlikely.
