Way too many people are expecting the game between Real Madrid and City to be easy. I do not consider this game to be easy at all, we are going to end up seeing how things could change very quickly because we have seen Real Madrid losing the la liga leadership this weekend as well, which means that the morale would be low there. Obviously this game could be a game where they can make a comeback, and that would be a normal situation without a doubt.

Real players will want to play their best game and stop this on the tracks without getting any bigger, they are going to want to get a win here. However, if this continues and they end up losing, not only they will lose UCL, but they may have a chance to lose more at la liga with that momentum.

Easy in what sense?

There is no easy for any team when there is only one goal in between two teams of the calibre of Manchester City and Real Madrid. It's true and I noticed this as well that Real Madrid is considered the favorite here and due to the given conditions of playing at home and having that goal, it's not wrong. But being the favorite can still vary a lot with respect to how big of a favorite Real Madrid is and I think it's a minor advantage. It is not huge and there is still a team that has a player like Haaland, who has not been as successful in the CL as in other competitions in important games, but who could still score a hattrick if everything goes well for him.

It is still a highlight despite Manchester City not being the best version these days. But Real Madrid has these negative outliers too. It is not all roses for them either and by a snatch they could as well have lost the game against Manchester City.
