Zinedine Zidane can win the Champions League after being appointed mid-season, a feat former Real Madrid coach Vicente Del Bosque managed.
Everything Zidane touches has seemingly turned to gold as he won the Champions League in his first year as a player for Real Madrid, then won it again as Ancelotti's number two, and he could now win it for a third time as head coach.
It seems like he was born to succeed with the white shirt of Real Madrid as all of his dreams are happening at the Bernabeu, having lost both his Champions League finals while playing for Juventus.
It would be even more remarkable as he has been appointed just five months ago, replacing Rafa Benitez, and could repeat Del Bosque's exploit in 2000 when the current Spanish boss replaced John Toshack late into the season, going on to win the competition a few months later.
Fourteen years after his first win as a player and two years after winning it late in Lisbon, we will see on Saturday if Zidane's blessed relationship with Los Blancos carries on.
