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.
Real Madrid will be more interested in winning than drawing. They have enough tools to make the match more memorable on their home ground, with a large squad of the best players and a confident team. Analyzing past statistics, it seems that Man City are not waiting for a good experience that will allow Madrid to win again. If reliable defenders Rudiger and Alaba, who have been out for a few weeks, return to the team, it could be even better for Madrid to win. Real Madrid defense is in a much weaker state than in the past due to some top injuries. I would say that the return of these two players will make the team strong position even stronger. There is enough strength in the attacking players and a strong position at the same time for Madrid to have a strong defense.
