Real Madrid will take on Manchester City at home tonight to secure the next round of the Champions League by defeating Manchester City. Real Madrid secured a 2-1 win against Manchester City in the first match, so Real Madrid will definitely be ahead of Manchester City in today's match. A draw in the opponent's field is a big deal, Real Madrid won there, so I see high hopes for Madrid.
In the match of the second leg, Manchester City may be defeated by Real Madrid with a margin of 3-1. Although I am not betting on Real Madrid in the first leg, I am betting on Real Madrid in the second leg because Real Madrid have a lot of chances in this match. Real Madrid is expected to secure the next round of the Champions League by beating Barcelona by a big margin.
Since Real Madrid won the away match, Real Madrid will not be under much pressure in the home match. If the match is drawn, Madrid will be able to qualify for the next round. And for a team like Madrid, drawing a match is not very difficult. Madrid's squad is very strong.
Real Madrid will get Rudiger and Alaba in the squad today. Two important defenders of Madrid. And if these two defenders are in Madrid's squad, naturally Madrid's defense will be strong. Now if Madrid plays defensively, it will be very difficult for City to score. However, Madrid's defensive strategy is unlikely to play in the home match. The match will be very exciting, maybe.
Maybe they may want to give the ball to Manchester City in the first minutes because Manchester City will want to attack and can leave positions behind. Real Madrid has effective and fast players such as Vinicius Junior or Mbappé. If Manchester City can create such positions behind, Real Madrid can score goals at home with their effective players. Manchester City will seek the tour in Spain under Guardiola's management, but this is not easy at all. Their opponent is the last Champions League Champion. Their squad quality is also at a high level.
