Manchester City must not underestimate Madrid, if they really want to win, they must be able to focus on playing consistently and regularly on the field so they can face Madrid like last season, be more calm and measured to be able to score goals, I believe that Manchester City can do it if they don't underestimate Madrid. they will be much more focused, we all know that all of Manchester City's key players will almost be played in the first leg and if Madrid want to win they have to beat the first leg.
It is not typical of City to underestimate a club that has won many titles in the UCL. Madrid is the current king of the UCL, it would be a big mistake if City were too overconfident in this match. I think, Pep Guardiola also really understands how Madrid plays the strengeth and weakness, and what he needs to do is keep his playing strategy on the field running well. This is the Quarter-Final round, there is no way City can underestimate Madrid.
Manchester City definitely knows who they will face this time. Well it is Real Madrid which is highly respected by all the clubs in Europe. Because after all, Real Madrid is still the record holder for winning the most titles in the UCL. Pep certainly understands this and will not underestimate Real Madrid at all. And for the Manchester City vs Real Madrid match, I think the first leg will be the most important match for Manchester City. Because last season Manchester City could only score so many goals when they were hosts. Meanwhile, when playing at Real Madrid's headquarters, the result was a draw at that time.
Apart from talk about Manchester City and Real Madrid, I am also quite interested in seeing Bayern who seem to be really crazy again in the Bundesliga. After they succeeded in getting rid of Lazio, it turned out that Bayern became more productive in the Bundesliga. In fact, they scored 8 goals in one recent match and then scored 5 goals in the most recent match. It looks like Arsenal must be the most wary of their opponents this time. Because Bayern's level of play seems to be returning to their best form again.
