Suker: Madrid will play Barca or Bayern in Champions League final

Ex-Real Madrid striker Davor Suker has predicted his former club will play in the Champions League final in Milan next month.

Suker, who played for Real for three seasons and scored 49 goals in 106 appearances, said Madrid would most likely play Barcelona or Bayern Munich, who he rated as the best teams in Europe.

"Madrid will reach the final and will play against either Barcelona or Bayern Munich, who are the strongest," he told Spanish radio network COPE.

"I think he is happy at Real Madrid and his future will depend on the results," he said.

Suker also looked ahead to Wednesday's Champions League quarter-final second leg between Barca and Atletico Madrid, saying he expected Luis Enrique's side to get the job done away from home.

"Barca has more experience than Atletico Madrid and I think they will have more opportunities to score," he said.

"It is all possible. The important thing is to win at all stages, even against the small teams, because three points are achieved," Suker said.

"We'll see what happens at the end of the league."
