The Real Madrid vs Manchester City match in the Champions League play-off round this season will certainly be quite fierce because it is about who will qualify for the next round so that both will equally exert their best abilities in the match. However, on this side I am actually more confident in Real Madrid than Manchester City, but for the level of fierceness of their match it will certainly be more likely to happen because after all both are very good teams and have also been very strong in their respective Leagues.
This match is like a final for both teams, Man City and Real Madrid will show their quality to compete for one ticket that can take them to the last 16 and whoever fails will be eliminated. The statistics of both sides give Real Madrid the edge, but City are also an experienced team despite their inconsistent form of late.
This is a two-legged match, so it is very difficult to predict who will qualify, Real Madrid is a strong team, but Man City cannot be considered weak either.
The match will be a repeat of last season's quarter-final match, Madrid of course has experience and history of revival in the UCL so far, but I think Manchester City will certainly carry a mission of revenge after their elimination from the UCL last season, both teams will of course give us an exciting match and even with the support of quality players will give us a match with high intensity in the match, Both teams have struggled in the UCL, but I see that if they have risen and will certainly exert all their abilities to be able to win the match, the experience and intelligence possessed by Ancelotti and also Guardiola in setting up the formation and strategy of their teams game will certainly be an important factor that can determine the victory in the match.
