Champions League Real Madrid vs Roma
The Real Madrid team have won this Champions League in the last 3 editions and they hope to renew the title of champions. This year there is no Cristiano Ronaldo who was the most dominant player in the success of this team.
The merengue team started poorly the season where they lost the European Super Cup to Atletico Madrid.
Then they improved in the championship and won three meetings where they even practiced good football and where players like Bale, Asensio and Isco and Modric were well, especially Bale. After,
last weekend had a tougher test, more demanding and did not pass.
In the move to Atletico Bilbao were not beyond a tie to 1 goal. They were losing, they still nullified the disadvantage, but they could not get back to the result.
It is now the beginning of the defense of the title of this Champions League.
The Roma team was one of the good surprises in the last edition of the Champions League in which they reached the semi-finals. They had the brilliance of eliminating Barcelona in an epic turnaround.
They fell at the feet of Liverpool but fought to the end and turned out to be a balanced tie. This year Rome badly started the championship and only have 5 points in 5 games.
Even started well with victory in Torino 1-0, but then compromised and lost points.
Last weekend, at the reception to Chievo Verona, were 2-0 ahead and finished the game tied in a totally inexplicable result.
Roma are still far from the football they practiced last year and where they showed good defensive quality.
They are still looking for the best possible interaction and to improve the exhibition quality. Still, they are the number 2 candidates to move on in this group behind Real Madrid.

Some expectation to see Real Madrid in this first European match without Cristiano Ronaldo and before a team that although not playing very well, is a dangerous opponent with interesting players.
Roma made an excellent campaign in the Champions League last year and Real Madrid will have to play this match after having lost points for the championship in the Basque country for Atletico Bilbao.
The meringues play at home and I believe that they end up giving a positive answer, because as I mentioned, the Roma in defensive terms has compromised enough and this will be a good match for Bale’s power or inspiration from Isco or Asensio to make a difference. Real Madrid must meet requirements and win this meeting.
