A draw would not be surprising, but it would not be good for Madrid. I think Liverpool will still be safe even with a draw. but a different situation will happen to Madrid who will try hard to get a win. Madrid did not get good enough results in the Champions League, they will definitely try to get the best results in the remaining matches even though they have to fight very hard. it is clear that it will not be easy to win at Liverpool's home with Liverpool's current performance. a big challenge for Ancelotti and proves how Madrid's strength is not yet exhausted.
If Liverpool draws with Real Madrid, then Ancelotti must prepare additional energy to advance to the last 16 through the play-offs. If Real Madrid loses, then Liverpool should be considered as the favorite candidate to win the title this season. We realize that there is a lot at stake for Los Blancos in the match, and the course of the match is certain to be troublesome for both teams. With the new match taking place after the international break, it is still very difficult to predict the readiness of both teams. What is clear for now, Ancelotti and Arne Slot hope that their players who defend the country can return in good condition.
The fact that the match will be played in England will put Real Madrid at a disadvantage. However, I think they will be psychologically ready since Real Madrid goes to away games a lot. In addition, Ancelotti will be able to establish order in the team after the unsuccessful results they have had in recent games. If they win against Liverpool, the dose of criticism against Ancelotti may be reduced. Therefore, the Liverpool match will be one of the critical games for Ancelotti.
