Both teams has quite a record in the Champions league although Real Madrid have dropped drastically in terms of form and Manchester City on the other hand are showing huge improvement this season. I think Real Madrid will be facing a tough test going head to head against this formidable Manchester City team.
I don't even think if real madrid has been dropping so hard. I meant we are talking about UCL. Real madrid may be having bad results in the previous matches on la liga but it's quite different when it comes to the UCL. Real madrid is still having good win rate at this moment as well as manchester city. Ancelotti is putting a lot of his focus in the match against manchester city caused by it will become the hardest match for real madrid. It will be even far harder compared with the match against barcelona. Real Madrid needs to take serious preparation right now.
De bruyne is coming back right now. Real madrid needs to use everything to stop haaland. Haaland is the main problem for real madrid. As long as real madrid knew how to stop him and it's gonna be a very important thing for madrid to win the game against city in santiago bernabeu.
I think that Manchester City is the favorite to qualify further in this encounter.I am not in any way underestimating Real Madrid as they have won Champions League more than any other team and not for nothing they are called the team Queen of Europe but because this time simply Manchester City has better quality players than Real does with all due respect to Real.
Manchester City was near eliminating them last year when their quality was not the same as this year and they lost it I don't know why in the last 3 minutes of the second encounter but I know this most likely won't happen again.
If we look at the current odds, Manchester City is actually the favorite if you look at the bookies' predictions, but on the other hand, something like this is not something that will definitely make them qualify for the final.
Currently Madrid is the defending champion and playing at the Bernabeu with odds of 3.20 is of course very tempting.
Apart from Haaland's existence at Manchester City which is being touted as a differentiator, in my opinion this is too much of a wishful thinking because of course Madrid is also not a weak team that will let Haaland move as he pleases in this match.
The 3.20 is a high rate for Real Madrid because they still have a high chance in this game against Manchester City, we know Macnshter City is a team that got perfect results presently and they beat many strong teams in the champions league and premier league but Manchester City is not really experienced in the champions league and we can't forget in Real Madrid most of the coaches are players are famous for their performance in champions league, I think the rate for Real Madrid is high enough to take the risk.
