UEFA Champions League: Real Madrid vs. Stuttgart, 3pm EST Second Half – Half With the Most Goals (+100) 1.2 units (DraftKings)

The new signings at Real Madrid may have arrived, but the underlying issues remain unresolved. It’s unlikely that the team will regain last season’s form and dynamism in just a few days or weeks. Kylian Mbappé’s lack of cohesion with the squad has become a topic of discussion, particularly with recent penalty goals drawing attention. The matches against Las Palmas and Real Sociedad have shown how fragile Real Madrid can be, despite the results.

When key players like Jude Bellingham and Aurélien Tchouaméni are unavailable, it becomes difficult to mentally rely on Real Madrid. However, their opponent, Stuttgart, is not among the top teams in the Bundesliga with inconsistent results so far. I believe the home team will gain the upper hand, particularly in the second half, by leveraging the quality of their squad, if not their physicality.
