Ian Rush – Juventus
Liverpool legend Ian Rush, who also had a brief stint with Juventus, has surprisingly backed Gonzalo Higuain to be a key player tonight. The Welsh striker insisted that Madrid are one of the teams who outscore their opponents but believes that if Juventus score twice, Zidane’s side will not be able to put 3 past Buffon and company.
“I am going with Juventus. Madrid are one of those teams who, you know, you score two then we will score three – they are that good. But I think if Juventus score two there's no way Madrid are going to score three. I think they are well organised, they work hard as a team, and they have got those players who can win you the game – the likes of Higuain and people like that.” ~ Ian Rush
Robert Pires – Real Madrid
Arsenal legend Robert Pires has also weighed down on the subject. The former Invincible has backed Los Blancos to win tonight’s clash comprehensively, predicting a 3-1 win for Cristiano Ronaldo’s side.
