Real Madrid will be confident ahead of this Champions League quarterfinal following their El Clasico win and the visitors will fancy their chances against an out of form Wolfsburg team.
The home side had a good run of games in late February / early March, including a 4-2 aggregate win over Gent in the previous UCL round. However, Wolfburg recently started struggling, as they did for most of the season in Bundesliga, where they are on the 8th place. The hosts have 1 point in their last 3 matches, couldn’t even defeat Darmstadt or Hoffenheim and are on the back of an ugly 0-3 loss in Leverkusen.
Real Madrid is on the back of a marvelous 2-1 win over Barcelona, a match in which they played really well and could have even added a couple of goals. It was the 6th consecutive win for Los Blancos, who seem to have found their form at the right time and are finally starting to click under Zinedine Zidane. Real made light work of Roma in the previous round, winning both matches and will feel that they can do the same against Wolfsburg.

Team news & lineups:
Wolfsburg won’t have Jung and Seguin in the lineup, while Naldo and Dost will probably miss the game as well. Real Madrid has a healthy squad, with Rafael Varane as the only absentee.
Wolfsburg: Benaglio – Trasch, Knoche, Dante, Rodriguez – Guilavogui, Gustavo – Vieirinha, Draxler, Schurrle – Kruse
Real Madrid: Navas – Carvajal, Ramos, Pepe, Marcelo – Kroos, Casemiro, Modric – Bale, Benzema, Ronaldo
Wolfsburg is not playing well recently and their current level of football is definitely not enough against a confident and in form Real Madrid side. Sure, the Germans are expected to raise their game in such a big match, but it would take a huge improvement for them to stand a chance. Their defense has never been solid and will probably be exposed against Real like it was against Leverkusen, while the offense is a pale shadow of what it was last year.
I can see the visitors backing up the win against Barcelona with another good, solid performance and they might finish this tie from the first leg. I reckon the odds are pretty good on an away victory, so my tip is Real Madrid to win. Personally I recommend a high stakes investment on this bet. Prediction: Wolfsburg – Real Madrid 0-2.
