Real Madrid might be able to have additional performance with Mbappe but that will happen next season and this season they will only be the same as last season when they lost badly on the road to Manchester City.
I think the results of last season matches could happen again for this season quarter final.
Both teams have strong squads and are focused on preparing for the quarter-final. Injuries can be a significant factor in any match, so it's crucial for both teams to manage their players workload and pyhsical stress and avoid any unnecessary risks. Manchester City will need to be particularly careful, as any injuries to key players could significantly impact their chances of winning while Real Madrid may have some new additions to their squad next season, it's essential to focus on the upcoming match and not look too far ahead. The previous seasons results may provide some insight, but it's a new match with new circumstances, and both teams will need to bring their best to get in the next round.
This match was a semi-final like a final match. Real Madrid and Manchester City are the top teams in the Champions League and both teams have great players. Real Madrid is the master of the Champions League and there is no other team that is an exception. It will be a great battle between two exceptional coaches, Ancellotti and Guardiola, with their players.
The better team will win. There are many variables this year, we will see which one will make the difference for both teams in this semi-final match.
