Best Goal Scorer Bets for Liverpool vs. Real Madrid in Champions League Final

The UEFA Champions League final, one of the most important matches of each year, is right around the corner.

Liverpool and Real Madrid navigated through months of play to make it to this spot and I don’t think this game will disappoint.

All odds listed were provided by WynnBET. 

Karim Benzema to score +110 / First Goal +325

Benzema will be the most accomplished and capable scorer in this game as far as I see it. His career was often overshadowed by former teammate Cristiano Ronaldo. But, at 34, the striker is having a career year for Real Madrid with 15 goals in 11 matches played.

He took 45 total shots in that span which works out to more than four per game. Seeing as how he is averaging more than a goal per game, I feel good about taking a chance on him as a favorite. For some extra value on Benzema, take him at +325 to get the first goal of the match. 

Vinicius Junior +185 to score

As I stated in my preview for this Match, I believe that Real Madrid wins this game as underdogs.

Therefore, It would make sense for this piece to have more than one member of Los Blancos listed. Enter Vinicius Junior who, I’ll admit, is not the most prolific scorer on this team. But, I think that makes him a perfect target to be overlooked by a defense focusing on Benzema and others.

Junior only lacks goals when playing with Real Madrid in the Champions League for some reason. Overall, he’s scored 17 goals in 30 starts this season as a member of Real Madrid across various leagues. I'm not sure why a guy with just three UEFA goals this year has such good odds to net a goal here.

Junior is just 21 years old and will be running on fresher legs than most defenders at this point in the season. I think he’s worth a look for those as confident as me in Real Madrid in this final match.
