The second leg of Real Madrid vs Atlético Madrid is definitely difficult to predict as the odds are not very wide. The odds of the two teams are close, but the bookies have tipped Real Madrid to win. Since this match is at Madrid's home ground, they will enjoy the advantage and will be strong in defense and attack. Every match in the Champions League is very difficult, but I think Real Madrid have a lot of experience as they have won the UCL many times. And for Atlético Madrid, Ancelotti will definitely try to adopt a different strategy and build a strong team to enter the quarter-finals.
Isn't it always like that?
Real Madrid are always the favorites to win a derby regardless of the competition, unless 1/4 of the starting lineup is out due to injury. I agree that Real Madrid are favourites, but Atletico Madrid are still dangerous despite trailing 1-0 in the first leg.

Atletico Madrid's chances of qualifying for the next round are still very big, so of course the derby match is still difficult to predict. I believe Real Madrid may have a better chance of qualifying, but they still have to take the lead from the first half. It's just like Atletico Madrid's mentality will be damaged, but if Atletico Madrid takes the lead first then their strength will increase.
