Football Bet of the Day: Real Madrid to devour the Wolves

Wolfsburg v Real Madrid
Wednesday 19:45 (Live on BT Sport Extra)

It was all too much for us in the Championship last night. Reading 2 Nottingham Forest 1 in the Home Counties last night.

From the Madejski to the majesty of a Champions League quarter-final. It's Wolfsburg's first and they look seriously outgunned going up against Real Madrid, who have reached this stage for a sixth consecutive season.

Los Blancos have won 6/6 competitive games since the start of March, including an impressive 2-1 win over Barcelona in el clasico last weekend. Still miles behind their great domestic rivals, this competition should be Zinedine Zidane's main focus. They won their Last 16 first leg 2-0 at Roma and, last season, came to Germany and won a similar match 2-0 against Schalke. In 2014 they came to these parts twice for knockout games, beating Schalke 6-1 and - even more impressively - Bayern Munich 4-0.

Wolfsburg have failed to win any of their three Bundesliga games since winning their Last 16 tie with Gent a month ago. We expect them to comfortably extend that winless streak to four this evening.
