Prediction for the UEFA Champions League match between Porto vs Manchester United, which will take place on October 22nd. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the teams' conditions! Several betting options are available.

Madrid has Alaba and Carvajal injured, and it's not yet clear whether Diaz can play. PSG lost to Lille 0:1 in the Champions League 2024/25 and beat Stuttgart 3:1. The three points gained mean that the Spaniards are now in 17th place in the Champions League standings. After the second round of the UCL, Real Madrid played two La Liga matches: they defeated Villarreal 2:0 at home and Celta 2:1 away. Real Madrid sits in second place in the La Liga standings, three points behind leading Barcelona.

Borussia has Adeyemi, Couto, Duranville, and Reyna in the infirmary, and Süle might not be playing as well. The Dutch have six points after two rounds of the Champions League, having beaten Bruges 3:0 and Celtic 7:1. DB now leads the UCL standings with six points, ahead of their rivals on goal difference. After the victory over Celtic, Borussia Dortmund played two matches in the German league: they lost to Union Berlin and then beat St Pauli 2:1 at home. Borussia is seventh in the German league standings, four points behind the first Bayern.

The teams that made it to the 2023/24 Champions League final are meeting again. They've played each other before, so there's no need to wait for special intel, which makes it more likely that they'll score a lot. Both teams have strong offensive lines, which makes it an excellent bet to go for the total. Real Madrid would be unlucky to lose points again. They've already given one game to Lille, while the Germans haven't missed any points in the Champions League yet. Plus, the latter have a better goal difference than the other teams in the group, so we think it's worth betting on them to win.
