A clash of two winners. Real Madrid have had a successful season, winning the Champions League in addition to their league competition, mainly due to their character. It has often been the worse team, but it has always been able to handle difficult situations and turn them to its advantage.
It was Eintracht Frankfurt that languished in the league, but the Europa League run? That was a different story. The German team knocked out, for example, Barcelona or West Ham, and beat Rangers in the final. It was a great success, which nobody probably expected before the season.
Frankfurt would certainly like to win another trophy, but it won’t be easy. Real Madrid simply have more quality and experience on their side. It could be said that David and Goliath will be facing each other.
Eintracht, however, will have one small advantage. It has already played competitive matches. They’ve played in the cup and the league. And in the league, it has faced its toughest opponent, Bayern Munich. The latter won 6-1, but it should be noted that Frankfurt wasted a few chances. Moreover, there was nothing to lose, it was the start of the league competition and there will be many more matches against easier opponents.
It will be different against Real Madrid. Moreover, there have been several occasions when the favoured Champions League winner has not been able to beat the Europa League winner in the UEFA Super Cup. Eintracht will definitely be betting on Real’s indecision. The Spanish side has played only three friendlies, the last one at the end of July.
If you’re not afraid of risk, then you can bet on Frankfurt to win. However, it’s a slim chance. But you can definitely expect a goal spectacle. At least three goals will definitely be scored.
