Even though Real Madrid have a long history in the UCL and have won 15 trophies, it doesn't mean they are unbeatable. Real Madrid just lost points at Espanyol's headquarters in the continuation of La Liga, the negative result had a little impact on their mentality as they were preparing to face Man City who were much stronger than the team that had just beaten them.
This match is like a final for both teams, although Real Madrid are favorites, Man City can also provide a surprise.
At the point now, you can’t grade any of the teams by their number of trophies in the competition before you can conclude that they will be the superior team to win. It is true that Real Madrid are kings of the champions league but football changes and that is why they have to play in this playoff round before they can get a chance to continue their journey in the league. Anything can happen and i feel both teams may have equal chances of winning this games together.
One thing to keep in mind is that Liverpool suffered their only defeat against PSV. The Dutch team is a team full of surprises. I think it will be a difficult match for the Italian team in the match they will play in Holland. The crowd support is very high for PSV. This makes the opponent very difficult in the match. They have very passionate fans in terms of atmosphere. If Juventus cannot pass this elimination, it could be a problem for Motta.
Motta and Juventus are in a very delicate situation now. They need to win this match in order to continue with their journey in the champions league but the opponent they are been drawn against are not just any mediocre team as their performance in the champions league so far this season have spoken for them to be a great result from them. Juventus will have to play better and more extra quality before they can prevail in this instance as the Dutch team looks very confidence to prevail against them in this match couple wit the support from their fans.
