Both Teams to Score & Over 2.5 Goals

Given the context of the second leg and the match dynamics at play, this combination offers exceptional value. Real Madrid are trailing and have no choice but to throw caution to the wind. Their tactical setup will naturally lean heavily towards attack, particularly with Tchouaméni operating in midfield – a player more inclined to progress play than provide a defensive shield. Madrid’s approach will be aggressive and high risk, meaning they are likely to either unlock Arsenal’s backline or leave themselves exposed.

Arsenal, meanwhile, won’t necessarily need to push for a result from the start, but they’re unlikely to sit back entirely. With the likes of Saka, Martinelli, and Merino capable of hitting swiftly on the counter, the Gunners are well-positioned to punish any Madrid errors. Defensively, Real have looked vulnerable at home in Europe – they’ve failed to keep a clean sheet in their last ten continental fixtures at the Bernabéu, highlighting an ongoing pattern rather than a temporary lapse. The attacking firepower of both teams makes a high-scoring game extremely likely, and neither side is expected to play conservatively. A 2-2 or even 3-1 scoreline in either direction feels well within reason given the circumstances.

Jude Bellingham to Have 2 or More Shots on Target

Real Madrid’s desperation to overturn the first-leg deficit means key attacking players will have to take centre stage, and few have the presence or influence of Jude Bellingham. Despite being a midfielder, Bellingham has consistently found shooting opportunities in this year’s Champions League campaign, averaging just over one attempt per game. Close to half of his shots hit the target, and an additional third are either blocked or strike the woodwork, reflecting how often he gets into promising areas.

With Real expected to dominate possession and territory, particularly in the opening stages, Bellingham is likely to find himself in positions to test the goalkeeper. He thrives in high-pressure moments and is known for his late runs into the box, making him a serious threat. Arsenal’s midfield may be set up to absorb pressure, but even the most disciplined setup can struggle to track Bellingham’s movement. Given the context and Madrid’s need for goals, he should be able to notch up at least two shots on target.

Declan Rice to Register an Assist

This pick might appear ambitious on paper, but there is solid reasoning to support it. Rice has been in exceptional form, particularly in the Champions League, where he’s been more involved in offensive contributions than he typically is in domestic competition. In European matches this season, he’s notched four goals and two assists, and notably, two of those goals came from dead-ball situations in the first leg – a sign that he’s trusted in key moments and capable of producing under pressure.

Against Madrid, Rice is expected to play a dynamic role, moving between defence and attack with purpose. Arsenal’s system often allows him to step forward into advanced areas, especially when transitions open up. With Madrid committing men forward, there’s a strong possibility that Rice finds space and time to deliver a decisive pass in behind their stretched defence. Considering his form – six goal contributions in his last nine appearances across club and international duty – backing him to assist at the Bernabéu is a calculated risk with strong upside.

Jude Bellingham to Be Shown a Card

While Jude Bellingham’s primary role is to dictate play and contribute to Madrid’s attacking phases, his temperament in high-stakes European ties – particularly against English opposition – cannot be ignored. Since moving abroad, Bellingham has developed a reputation for competitive edge and isn’t afraid to commit to challenges when the pressure mounts. His average of 0.26 cards per 90 minutes isn’t overly high, but context is everything here.

All five of his Champions League knockout yellow cards have come in matches versus Premier League sides, which suggests a psychological edge – or perhaps frustration – when facing English teams. As Madrid are forced to chase the game, and with Arsenal likely to frustrate and draw fouls in transition, it’s not difficult to imagine Bellingham overstepping the line. Whether it’s a tactical foul or a sign of his competitive fire boiling over, there’s historical precedent to suggest he could go into the referee’s book once more.
