I agree with you because the two favorite clubs to win the UEFA Champions League trophy this season are playing against each other in the quarterfinals. Any club that advances to the semi-final between Real Madrid and Manchester City will win this season's UEFA Champions League trophy.

If I had to speak based on statistical data then of course these two clubs, namely Man City and Real Madrid, are two clubs that should deserve to meet in the UCL final. But unfortunately they were unlucky because they had to meet earlier and one of them had to leave UCL in the quarter-finals. Maybe it is true that whichever club wins this match has the potential to win the UCL title this season. But that is if everything can happen based on currently available data, such as data on the performance of these two clubs compared to other teams. It's just that of course we're all used to it, right? Seeing the UCL which is full of surprises and even ordinary teams that don't get much attention can make us surprised because they could be lucky and actually go on to the final and win. So in the final quarter we still see everything unclear. Maybe in the semi-finals we will be able to start predicting which one will succeed as champion in the UCL this season.

The sad thing is, we may not see these two clubs at their peak matching against each other at the finals. I mean they are already changing skins all the time, look at 5 years ago City squad and look at it now, so many new players, while some stay the same, just as Real Madrid, look at 5 years ago and look at today, a lot of changes while keeping some the same. If they keep meeting before the finals like this all the time, eventually they will not be at their peak, or even if they are at their peak, it will be different players.

Last year would have been a good season, this year would have been fine, but if neither then at least next season, imagine Mbappe joins Madrid and most of the squads would be the same aside from that and they face at the finals.
