That's for sure. These are quotes from last year when City really looked dominant and Real didn't have Bellingham. Theoretically, I could understand if the teams were rated equally, although even in this case I would consider Real underrated, but the fact that City are the away favorites is simply ridiculous. At the moment I am thinking about what is the most profitable thing to do - take a risk and make a simple bet on Real Madrid or make a reliable double chance bet on Real Madrid.
The double chance odds is small, around @1.30 - @1.60.
This match draw is may likely to happen, so it's quite risky to bet Real Madrid to win. I would bet for under 2.5 because based on history, when the match held in Real Madrid's home, they didn't score many goals.
Currently Manchester City is the favorite, but we still have six days, odds swing could happen.
At the moment the Real double chance outcome is quoted as 1.53. Does it seem small to you? +53% with a very reliable bet seems very profitable to me.
A bet on the total seems unreliable/unprofitable to me since Real will try to gain an advantage in the first game and given the strength of the attack of both teams, I would not be surprised by the score 4-2. In the second game where Real will try to keep the score (I'm an optimist hehe), perhaps such a bet will be relevant.
