Real Madrid vs Manchester United Prediction 8 August 2017

On August 8 2017 at 19:45 in Macedonia at the Philip II Arena the 2017 UEFA Super Cup game will be played between the winners of the Champions League Real Madrid and the winners of the Europa League Manchester United.

We could talk about the things Zinedine Zidane did for Real Madrid for a very long time, in fact. Besides their great results in the Spanish Primera Division, Real Madrid won the Champions League twice in a row with Zidane as the manager. Moreover, they also won UEFA Super Cup twice in the last three seasons. As for their transfer policy, it’s rather hard to describe this time as they only sell players and don’t buy any. In fact, los Blancos managed to earn 130-150 million euros due to these sales.

Even though some of the experts may consider Jose Mourinho’s achievements to be not as bright as Zidane’s ones, we can still say for sure that he was actually the first to make Manchester United system work again after sir Alex Ferguson left it. Anyway, we all know that Manchester United never stop on what they have achieved and only tend to multiply their trophies. According to that same manager of the Red Devils, they are rather effective in the current transfer window as they have already signed three of the four players necessary for the coach.

Real Madrid and Manchester United have already played four games against each other since 2013 where the teams drew once while Real won once and Manchester won twice. Last time they met was on July 24 this year at the International Champions Cup. In that game they drew in the main time and the English won after the penalty shooting. Considering the problems of the main player of Real Madrid which are not connected with football and his possible absence in the match, we think that Manchester Untied will have an opportunity to avoid a loss in the main time and to score at least once goal.
