Real Madrid @3.10, Draw @3.50 and Manchester City @2.20. Even if you bet on Manchester City though, the fact is you will still get good odds and it will still be fun when you do. After all, what kind of trick do you mean because in reality, Real Madrid in La Liga was also not as good as last season so I don't believe in a trick just to increase the stakes.
After all, Real Madrid is a big team, of course, fans and non-fans, of course, will be able to enjoy matches with their usual bets. So yes, Real Madrid and Manchester City certainly have a chance to win, but of course it's always going to be the teams that are going to win and lose the game and because of that, I'm leaning more towards Manchester City.
These are quotes for the first game where Real Madrid plays at home and therefore it is not very clear how much the bookmakers consider City as a favorite. Here are quotes for the outcome of the confrontation:
To Qualify
Real Madrid 3.35
Manchester City FC 1.32
A huge bias in favor of the City, it is almost 75% to 25%. Perhaps this is a fair estimate, but still I will hope that we will see exactly the 25% where the City will be knocked out again.
The bookmakers do not consider so many things before they release odds but in a popular match as yhe one between Real Madrid and Manchester City, all the stats are available and the bookmakers must have investigated well. Most times they chose to play mind games to deceive the gamblers.
But for this match while bookmakers favoured Manchester could be because of these reasons;
1. Manchester City is more in form than Real Madrid
2. Some key Madrid players are already out because of injuries. Player such as Modric and Militao
