After seeing the game between Manchester City and Arsenal that ended the way it ended, I think Madrid will be more confident that they can win the fixture against Manchester city and city will have their confidence tampered as they were literally humbled by an epic scoreline in the yesterday's fixture. I n this fixture it's sad that winning is the only option for either teams as they cannot draw and still have a chance so it's going to be a really epic and yet intriguing game between both teams.
I also think the same thing, after seeing City defeated by Arsenal in the Premier League, it seems that we are increasingly doubtful about their match against Real Madrid later. City's weak defense seems to be a target for Madrid's front line players who have skills and speed. IMO, this is no longer about confidence, but it seems that Ancelotti has observed the weaknesses of Manchester City players and their system. but we'll just see how Pep Guardiola will process his tactics and strategies later, because no matter what City will work hard to win the match against Madrid. the first leg is held at the Alliaz Arena, they will try hard to return to their best performance. even so, City is still very doubtful, I think Real Madrid will be favored in the battle between these two teams.
