When Manchester City and real Madrid met last season, many had the believe that real Madrid will dismantle Manchester City and knock them out of the champions league, but that prediction never materialized. However it was the other way round. I don't know why many still have this believe that real Madrid current squad is superior to that of Manchester City. It's very funny because this Manchester City team are the defending champions and they are still playing very well if you ask me. The earlier Madrid realize that they are facing a team capable of eliminating them in the Champions league this season the better for them and their fans who always have high hopes on them.
Manchester city was actually in a very good form as at when they met with real Madrid last season, they also had they strength that they were able to tackle every team they met in the champions league and they record very few losses in their champions league game last season meanwhile Real Madrid wasn't in their very best form to tackle Manchester city as at then but they did their best and still got eliminated.
This season is actually quite different because both teams as in a very good form and they are both aware of what's at stake for them to be able to still continue in the champions league, most persons were actually thinking they will be able to meet at a much advanced stage of the champions league this season but then it's still an opportunity for others who would have gotten eliminated by either of these tea.s to still stay much longer than they would have stayed, Manchester city may not be able to really find if easy winning Real Madrid this season as they are in a much better form.
As compared to last season Madrid is much prepared and they have the experience aswell because they have encountered Manchester city previously and they know it actually did cost them the league so they will be much more careful to handling them this time because they know what's at stake except Manchester city will be able to much goals from this game, it will be an advantage for them subsequently.
