What we will watch will be two strong teams, two magnificent fights. Real, who is doing well in La Liga, will host Manchester City, which is not bad in the Premier League, and we will watch two final-like matches. I see Real Madrid's chances higher in the match in Spain. Real Madrid is my favorite to pass the round, but even penalties can determine the winner of this round. It was a good match. I think the winning team will emerge from a difficult battle.
Real Madrid and Manchester City had many chances to play against each other recent seasons and this season, they meet each other again. They are one of strongest teams in Europe this season and belong to best candidates to win Champions League.
So their meeting in quarter final round is too early but the draw can not be changed, they will have to fight and beat each other to go to semi finals. Both Real Madrid and Manchester City don't shown dominating forms in this season so no team will have to worry and feel fearful about their opponent. They have fair chance to win and I will wait for a match of Manchester City against Arsenal in Premier League to assess their readiness for these matches with Real Madrid.
In a big match against Liverpool, Manchester City didn't play too well and if they continue such performance against Arsenal, it will be not good preparation for big matches with Real Madrid in Champions League quarter finals.
Real Madrid and Manchester City have met in the past two seasons of the Uefa Champions League, and they are still playing against each other this season in the quarterfinals. In those previous meetings, any club that was more consistent always advanced to the next round of the UEFA Champions League. From my observation, I see Real Madrid beating Manchester City to reach the semi-finals because they are more consistent than Manchester City this season.
