Zidane Predicts Winner Between Real Madrid and Bayern Munich

Frenchman Zinedine Zidane, the former manager of Real Madrid, warned the royal team about facing Bayern Munich in the UEFA Champions League. Real Madrid will visit Bayern this evening, Tuesday, at the Allianz Arena, in the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals. Zidane stated in an interview with "The Athletic" newspaper: "The encounters we've had with Bayern have always been fantastic. They are the matches we always want to play, as they are a very competitive team, very strong." Regarding tonight's match, he said: "It won't be easy for Real Madrid, but at the same time, Madrid is Madrid." The newspaper confirmed that Zidane favors Real Madrid against Bayern Munich, despite his warnings about the strength of the German team. Real Madrid eliminated Bayern Munich under Zidane's leadership on two occasions: first in the quarter-finals in 2017 and then in the semi-finals in 2018.
