Real Madrid vs Arsenal Betting Tips - Over 2.5 Goals/BTTS

Real Madrid enter this crucial Champions League clash under significant pressure after a disastrous 3:0 defeat in last week´s first-leg encounter at the Emirates Stadium. A stunning pair of free-kicks from Declan Rice secured a well-deserved win for the Gunners.

Now staring elimination in the face, Real will need to put on a special display if they are to maintain their quest for a record-breaking 16th European Cup/Champions League triumph. 

Carlo Ancelotti´s side will need to get on the front foot, and another thrilling contest at the Bernabeu seems likely with the Gunners more than capable of hurting the hosts on the counter. 

High-scoring outcomes have been frequent at the Bernabeu, both domestically and in this competition. Ten of Real´s 12 most recent home fixtures finished with BTTS and over 2.5 goals scored, while all but one of their last ten UCL games in Madrid saw both outcomes. 

Arsenal make the trip to Spain in high-confidence with the Gunners standing on the precipice of a remarkable UCL victory. A strong road record will give Arteta´s side plenty of belief, with Arsenal unbeaten in 14 of their last 15 away fixtures.

On their travels, each of Arsenal´s last three UCL games saw both teams to score and a minimum of three goals scored, and a similar outcome should be expected in what could be a potentially dramatic night in Spain.

With Real certain to lift their game, I expect another high-scoring outcome, with over 2.5 goals and BTTS both looking like reliable choices on the night. 

I´m putting a full stake on BTTS and over 2.5 goals scored at the Bernabeu.
