You are right, Real Madrid and Manchester City are the two favorites in the Champions League this season, but unfortunately they had to meet too soon in the quarter-finals. I was basically expecting Manchester City to play Real Madrid in the semi-finals, but that never really came true.
Real Madrid has home advantage in the first leg, while Manchester City will have it in the second leg. Manchester City already have experience beating Real Madrid, but they will never be able to do the same thing every season if Ancelotti has learned enough from his mistakes last season. I would certainly expect the opposite, I mean Manchester City must can beat Real Madrid in the quarter-finals this season.
Likewise, but it's time to see one of them show strength so they could advance to the next level of the tournament in the Champions League Competition.
Come rain come sun, I'd go for Real Madrid to go through and if they fail me? Fine then. But for this fixture? Manchester City should return and play the Premier League Competition.
Had anyone also noticed Pep Guardiola and Kevin De Bruyne quarreling? I mean right on the pitch. What could that mean and be?
Most worried about Real Madrid and them plays because these days, they're being too much of a defensive structure. Can they use that to defeat Manchester City? Let's also see if Antonio Rudiger will hold down Erling Haaland in that game yet again.
