It is a mammoth task for both English Premier League clubs to make it to the next round. Some time ago Bayern Munich was devastated because they couldn't handle all the problems within their team correctly and Leverkusen made use of that opportunity and ran away from them in the Bundesliga. But they have now realized that there is some backdoor to save this season and to restore their international reputation. If they can make it into the Champions League final, I think it would be the best way for them to make the people forget about their bad performance in the Bundesliga and in the DFB Pokal. I think that Bayern has the stronger team here and Manchester City is roughly equal to Real Madrid, maybe some advantage over them, but definitely not a lot.
From here we will see how ambitious Arteta's men are to beat Bayern Munich. Indeed, the chances of both are 50:50 because they are equally strong, but in this case Bayern Munich will focus their energy only on the Champions League after they no longer have a chance in the Bundesliga. Of course, this is quite a tough job for Bayern Munich this season because if they fail in the Champions League then they will be fasting for title this season. Apart from that, if you look at Arsenal performance, of course they have the ambition to become champions because their progress in the Champions League this season has succeeded in overcoming many obstacles and for that I hope Arsenal can achieve the target they want.
If you look at Manchester City, this is not much different from Arsenal because Manchester City has stronger opponents. I still hesitate to say that Manchester City will succeed in beating Real Madrid and vice versa. The big advantage may come from the strength of the players who will be fielded later because if one of the teams loses a core player due to injury perhaps it will make it more difficult for them to provide strong resistance. And seeing this, one of them will be able to take advantage of this opportunity to find victory.
Last season real madrid with no qualified CF, namely karim benzema was beaten 4-0 and 1-1 in the champion league. now benzema has left and his cf replacement is far inferior to benzema, only a joselu as a substitute for benzema. so if the performance is normal and there are no surprises, surely manchester city can beat and remove real madrid from the champion league again.
