I doubt Real Madrid will get qualify to knock out round or not with UEFA Champion League new format after defeating 2 of 4 matches and collected 6 points awhile. Last match make many fans shocked after Madrid defeating by not favorable team AC Milan have downtrend performance in domestic league bust success defeating Madrid on their home match. However Madrid have 9 points remaining reach to direct qualify to knock out round from Aston Villa but many teams have few points left to reach higher standings position will make difficult for Madrid get the higher standings position.
Upcoming match, Madrid have to face difficult opponent team Liverpool who leading the first standings awhile and must win if won't loss opportunity to defend the Champion League tittle.
Four matches left for Real Madrid in phase league matches
- Liverpool A
- Atalanta A
- Salzburg H
- Brest A
If Madrid does end up in the play-off, I don't think it will be a big deal, but it certainly won't happen.
Although Madrid current performance is inconsistent, I have this assumption,
Liverpool vs Madrid (
draw)
Atalanta vs Madrid (
Madrid win)
Madrid vs Salzburg (
Madrid win)
Brest vs Madrid (
Madrid win)
If all the matches are in accordance with this prediction, I am sure Madrid will be in the best position to advance to the next round.
