the thing that i admire about real madrid, they are a consistent team so far, their strength is very stable, even lopsided issues are very difficult to hit madrid. currently they are 7 points ahead of girona who is in 2nd place, in the local league i'm sure they will become champions as well as in the champions league, they have a big chance to become champions i'm sure with the strategy that anceloti continues to use, madrid is lucky to have him as a coach.
Real Madrid is always the favorite in various competitions, but that will never be a guarantee that they can win the title. Of course La Liga is within reach considering that Girona and Barcelona have left the competition, but the season is still quite long so it doesn't make sense to make Girona and Barcelona compete for the title again until the end of the season.
I hope Ancelotti never underestimates any team until the end of the season because losing even two matches could increase the risk of failure for Real Madrid in their title race this season, so they must remain focused even though the Champions League matches this season are very tough.
