uefa.comReal Madrid and Manchester City will meet each other already on the quarter-final of the Champions League competition
. It is actually a little sad for me. I really wanted these two to actually meet each other later in the competition. But it is what it is. Now we will have seen crazy things happen previously between Real Madrid and Manchester City in the Champions League competition.
The thing is on paper to me it looks like Manchester City has the upper hand. But at the same time, we have seen Real Madrid bring in crazy performances in the Champions League, even against Manchester City. So I think anything goes in this class. And remember this is going to be played over two legs. So both of the teams are going to have genuine chances. But I still think Manchester City should be better ready for the competition.
If we look at the level of consistency and performance during this season, I actually think that Man City will be superior to Real Madrid. It's just that Real Madrid is a giant club and is also the club that has won the most titles in the Champions League. So they have far superior experience in facing every strong team in the Champions League. And Real Madrid is currently stronger than last season. Because the evidence is that currently Real Madrid can be said to be quite safe at the top of the Laliga standings. And Real Madrid looks like it will lift the Laliga trophy this season. So it can be said that Real Madrid's performance can really make Man City difficult. Although I still think Man City will be the favorite. But if I think longer, Real Madrid could actually surprise us by beating Man City. Because Real Madrid has a strong ambition to take revenge against Man City on the field, especially in the UCL.
