1. Atletico

Atletico are the least dangerous of the 3. Their defense is alright, but its not the best. They’re also not the type of team to win a match by more than 2 goals which makes a comeback fairly easy. This season Real beat their cross town rivals 3-0 and then tied 1-1 in a match Real should’ve won 1-0, had it not been for horrible decisions from our defense.

2. Monaco

Monaco are the type of team that can score 4 goals in a match. Comebacks would be extremely tough against them and Radamel Falcao and Kylian M’bappe are in their best form.

Monaco goals in the last 4 matches:
3 vs. Manchester City (Champions League First Leg)
3 vs. Manchester City (Champions League Second Leg)
3 vs. Borussia Dortmund (Champions League First Leg)
3 vs. Borussia Dortmund (Champions League Second Leg)

3. Juventus

Juventus have the best defense in Europe and have Gonzolo Higuain and Paulo Dybala up front, who are extremely dangerous.
