City is a massive favourite to win the Champions League. Odds are as follows:
It has been so in the Last 3 or 4 years, and they managed to lift it only once. I personally think Manchester City are not going top win it back to back.
I predicted an easy win for Real Madrid against the Red Bull team in the 2nd leg in Santiago Bernabeu. Real Madrid are the top team in La Liga while Leipzig is struggling in Bundesliga but the game between them were completely different from what I expected. It's not a 1-1 draw because of a lucky or counter offensive goal, Leipzig was playing better than Real Madrid in most of it. Real Madrid did win the knockout due to lead in Red Bull Arena. They were thought to favourite team for the Champions league title but now they seem to be defeatable. .
But that's how they play most of their games. It's like you have not watched them play in the seasons where they won the Champions leagues. They don't need beautiful football or possession to go into the next round. They just know how to win when it matters most. I would write off Real Madrid just like that.
