The expert knows that City have the most potent offense in the world, led by superstar Erling Haaland. Their 92 goals and plus-61 goal differential are the best among the Big Five leagues. Real Madrid have scored 22 fewer goals while conceding one more (32-31). Haaland has 12 goals in nine UCL matches and 52 in 48 matches in all competitions. Kevin De Bruyne scored the equalizer last week and has 10 goals and 24 assists overall.   

Eimer also has considered that Los Blancos have plenty of firepower of their own. Karim Benzema (28 goals overall), Vinicius Junior (20) and Rodrygo (15) can bury their chances, and midfielder Luka Modric sets them up for success. Vinicius leads La Liga in shot-creating (158) and goal-creating actions (21). Rodrygo averages 0.82 goals created per 90 minutes, also best in the league, and Benzema averages 4.8 shots per game.
