Real Madrid will be the club to win the trophy this season both in Laliga and UCL. Girona was like trying to be on the title race with them, but the last match between these two clubs, shows that Girona is in no match to compete with Real Madrid in the title race. However, Girona has put up a wonderful performance this season, and I hope to see them in the Champions League next season.

Girona might find it difficult to win Athletic Bilbao who are currently in a good form, and they have no respect for any club. I hope that Girona will try their possible best to see that they win Bilbao or else they will drop points again, which is not something good at this time of the league.

Regarding the La Liga title, FIX I agree, but regarding the Champions League title I am still pessimistic about this possibility.
Of course I don't doubt Real Madrid's ability and experience in the Champions League, but the competing teams seem to be as strong or maybe stronger than Real Madrid. There are several problems that are actually a bit risky in the Real Madrid squad, that is the defense even though so far they are the team with the best defense in La Liga.

Qualify to quarter-finals is a reasonable thing to hope for, but when it comes to the semi-finals and finals, it really depends on who the opponents are. I hope this season's journey isn't as tough as last season and Real Madrid have to avoid Manchester City or Bayern Munich, who probably have great potential to qualify for the semi-finals.

In La Liga, Real Madrid is ruling because there are only a handful of clubs that can contend but they are not in the same standard. The Champions League is many times bigger than La Liga and the other national leagues in Europe. Because the best clubs in the world are competing, Real Madrid is not the best club predicted to win the Champions League. However, Real Madrid undoubtedly has a good chance of winning as well.

Real Madrid won the first leg however it was difficult against a determined RB Leipzig. The defense of Real Madrid required additional enhancements, and they are grateful to Andriy Lunin for preventing numerous shots on target.

Real madrid is like the legendary ac milan in the 90s. They position themselves very well on the pitch, they don't give the opponent any serious positions, but they don't play with the ball too much and dominate the game. But if they get the ball around the midfield, they can land in the opponent's goal in two passes. There is a tremendous quality and athleticism in their midfield and forwards, and the cohesion of the players is also at a high level. It seems that what they do is very simple because the players have very good fundamentals and their space sharing and mobility in the field is close to perfect, the team works like a machine.
