Liverpool vs Real Madrid

Liverpool is welcoming Real Madrid in game of the day on Champions League schedule. 

I can agree Liverpool is looking better at this point. They are leading team as in English Premier League as well in the Champions League. 

Real Madrid on the other side is dropping points more often than we got used to see. Plus Carlo Ancelotti is dealing with injury problems in his squad. For example Vinicius Junior can't play today. However, on offered odds like this (1.70 on Liverpool to win), my bet could be only on Spanish side. Simply, it's Real Madrid we are talking about. The best club on the planet. So forget the form, absences, momentum and everything. I just can't agree Liverpool should be such strong favourite. Favourite yes but such big favourite no. From the betting value angle, Real Madrid is absolutely the right side.
