[xmonkeyx]

Today everyone is talking about the Big Match in, Manchester City vs Real Madrid. Real Madrid are better prepared for this match, as They have just secured the La Liga title. Meanwhile, the visiting team Manchester City are still struggling until the end of the season because of pressure from Liverpool.
Manchester City came to the Bernabeu with a victory at the Etihad, Manchester City will use the provisions in the first leg to put pressure on Real Madrid at the Bernabeu. On the home side, Real Madrid had to fight for a goal. This match will be very exciting, it is difficult to predict who will qualify for the final.
 

Although Real Madrid lost away, they played very well and a one-goal defeat is not very critical. But I don't see how Real can win at home? On Bernabéu will have something similar to the first leg, City will score goals, and Real will recoup the whole match. Most likely we are waiting for the English final in the Champions League this year, because Villarreal has no chance against Liverpool.

The possibility is very wide open for both English teams to be in the UCL final this season, Liverpool is almost certain to be in the final, but Man City still has the same 50-50 chance as Real Madrid, because the second leg of the match will be played at home to Real Madrid.

In fact, I wouldn't agree that Real played well.
Manchester City was a much better team and they missed a great chance to solve the issue of the winner in the first match.
With the help of luck and because of the great individual quality of players, Real managed to get a very good result for the return match in Madrid.
Still, I think Manchester City have a better chance of reaching the final while Liverpool are the big favorites in the second match.

The statistics don't lie, so what the bookmakers have on their sites must be about right. And in fact Liverpool is already through, I saw odds of 1.01 for Liverpool, not really worth it and also dangerous by the way, when you see how Villareal played at home against Bayern Munich. Real Madrid may be a bit underrated, they can really beat anyone and score a lot of goals against anyone. Manchester City will really have to be careful next week, that can go wrong in Madrid.

In the second game, Manchester City missed a great chance to beat Real with a much bigger goal difference, and now a very uncertain and exciting match awaits us.

As for the Real Madrid v Manchester City match, I have complex opinions about it. Because they both seem to be capable of beating each other in the second leg of the matchup. Real Madrid will have to end the normal time one-goal ahead at least not to be eliminated by them. And it can be a really difficult work to do for them. Because in the first leg, Manchester City were incredibly well. Of course their playing in Etihad helped them mentally at a high rate also. But I think they won't change their game plan in Bernabeu too. I hope to see another unforgettable match.

Liverpool going into the finals is a given and I wouldn't count on an upset on this!

And comparing how Villarreal played against Bayern Munich to Liverpool is abit misleading to know how Villarreal faired and not the best approach as these teams had different responsibilities and this time they want to turn a result which is bad to good which will be too much to ask against a Liverpool side that outshined them.

Real Madrid may be a bit underrated, they can really beat anyone and score a lot of goals against anyone. Manchester City will really have to be careful next week, that can go wrong in Madrid.

This I agree with you, Real Madrid have been underrated in this meeting and we are soon to be proven wrong when the two teams meet,and without the away goals rule this will be anybodies game.

In head to head, the advantage is seen in Manchester City in the match later. Meanwhile, judging from the points, the advantage seems to be in favor of Manchester City because in the 1st leg Man City won 4-3. plus the enthusiasm of Man City to win the Champaion Title for the first time, so I predict the score will be 1-2 for Manchester City's victory in the match later.

The second leg between Real Madrid vs Manchester City will be interesting again, there will be a lot of drama going on in this match. Real Madrid have to work harder to catch up to the one-goal aggregate they got in the first meeting. Meanwhile, Manchester City will try to maintain their advantage. What is even more interesting is that Real Madrid always comes up with a surprise if they appear in the second leg. Will they do it again or otherwise Manchester City can break that, we'll see what happens.

Both Manchester City and Real Madrid have their respective levels of weakness, from the match in the first leg Real Madrid conceded very easily, although in the end also scored a goal, while Manchester City was unable to withstand attacks by Real Madrid players, even though the start of the match Manchester City have been able to score goals, the weaknesses of these two clubs must be able to be covered, consistent readiness then they will proceed to the next round, the opportunities for both clubs are still very wide open

Both coaches will cover the weakness that looks very prominent in the first leg, Manchester City and Real Madrid are both easy to concede, during 90 minutes of the match, there were 7 goals that were created. Ancelotti and Pep Guardiola are also looking for other gaps in the opposing team's weaknesses, such as Real Madrid's dependence on Benzema, this weakness that Guardiola can exploit to prevent Real Madrid from breaking into Manchester City's goal.

Overall both clubs have the same weaknesses, meaning that they can quickly return goals quickly, Madrid only relies on Benzema up front, but they play loosely in the midfield position, so Manchester City are focused on keeping Benzema, even though the attack scheme is built through the wings. and attacking midfielder, while Manchester City has the advantage for all players, they simultaneously attack, but the weakness of Manchester City is not being able to perfectly guard the Real Madrid striker, so the counter goal is created very quickly

[bestcoins1]

The possibility is very wide open for both English teams to be in the UCL final this season, Liverpool is almost certain to be in the final, but Man City still has the same 50-50 chance as Real Madrid, because the second leg of the match will be played at home to Real Madrid.

Yes, but it would be more exciting if a Spanish team like Real Madrid could advance to the Champions League final together with the English team Liverpool because the match would be more enjoyable to watch and would also be a very fierce match for both of them this season.
But we'll see who will qualify for the final this time because the club left to win the Champions League final this time is a very good club.

The Real Madrid vs Man City match is just a few days away, and we will soon find out who will qualify for the final. If we look at the first leg match
where Man City played better and dominated the match, Man City should be favorites to win the match in the second leg. The problem is that Man City
will face Real Madrid, which surprisingly Real Madrid was able to get rid of PSG and Chelsea. By looking at this fact, Real Madrid is not an easy team
to beat, there is even a possibility that Real Madrid will qualify for the final.

For me the match Real Madrid vs Man City is difficult to predict, because both actually have the same chance. The possibility of the second leg match
will be even more exciting, because both teams will definitely give their best. I tend to choose Real Madrid who will qualify for the final, because
Real Madrid is more experienced and also I think Real Madrid has a stronger mentality. So I believe Real Madrid will play a surprise against Man City
in the second leg and can qualify for the final.

Manchester city has demonstrated a good record from this tournament, that will make me to have full confidence that they will achieve this UEFA Europa champion league title. Manchester city will lock Real Madrid out from their second leg because their coach has introduced more tactics into the team that will make them to defeat Real Madrid 3-0 for the favour of Manchester city. I think Manchester city will be the one to win this season UEFA champion title because Liverpool has won it before, which Manchester city will do everything within their power to win this season UEFA Europa champion league title.

[Kocret02]

In terms of opportunities, both clubs still have a chance, even though Real Madrid lost 1-0 on aggregate, but because the number of goals in the first leg was quite a lot, this became Real Madrid's advantage, especially playing at home in the second leg, even though Manchester City also cannot be underestimated, they are at their best this season, Pep Guardiola has potential players for this season, for both clubs a small mistake will affect the result of the second leg match

Real Madrid will definitely prepare everything that can motivate them to play better at home this time because this is a decisive game they are one step away from reaching the final if they do not have significant mistakes and can win the match with a better aggregate than First leg. I'm sure that Real Madrid will try to do that because they also know that Manchester City are in very good form this season.

The two clubs are indeed in the best condition in this season, but last night Real Madrid had secured one champion in the domestic league, this would be increasingly motivated for their players and supporters, especially since the second leg took place at the Bernabeu Stadium, as well as Manchester City they were in the game in the game which is quite consistent this year, one more step they will also win the title in the domestic league, because at this time they are the top of the standings, for the second champions league the club is still very open to win and continue the trend to the final

Meanwhile, judging from the points, the advantage seems to be in favor of Manchester City because in the 1st leg Man City won 4-3. plus the enthusiasm of Man City to win the Champaion Title for the first time, so I predict the score will be 1-2 for Manchester City's victory in the match later.

In reality, there are no advantages for Manchester city. A goal lead is very easy to overturn and this is why both teams need to be at their best and ofcourse take their chances too. Madrid got to the semi finals because they persisted and were clinical in front of goal. Mcfc has to do that too. It is a different atmosphere there at the bernabeu. I think Real Madrid will go through to the finals

This season's La Liga has been too easy for Real Madrid as not many teams can compete with them from the start in the title race. So Real Madrid have to be satisfied with their consistent performance in the league this season despite having suffered 3 defeats and 6 draws in 34 matches.

Overall, Real Madrid's performances this season in the Champions League have also not disappointed considering they are still lucky enough not to fall short in every round so far. They still have a chance to advance to the final even though Manchester City are favorites to secure a ticket to the final after beating them 4-3 in the first leg. I think maybe Madrid will fail to make it to the final, but I don't know maybe they will still be lucky in the second leg.

Predicting a big match like this is not easy anyone can get a chance Madrid plays with an advantage as a home team Man city come on ahead in the first leg
Well the 2nd leg will be very decisive we know apart from each other's advantages one of them can hope from luck like a penalty or something

[aryana42]

this makes the game very fun
I love both teams, they gave me a lot of fun
I hope that in the next match they will work hard to make a better show than in the first game
in any case, I slightly cheer Real Madrid: D
makes me more sympathetic

I know for now it seems like Manchester City is going to be the winners in the second leg also but no one should underestimate real Madrid, especially in the Champions League. We all know that Real Madrid is always performing well on big stages and we also saw the proof of it this year.
So, Real Madrid has been said to be the underdog previously but they have proved that they are able to overcome any odds.

From experience, everyone believes Real Madrid will have a chance to secure the second leg, but Manchester City have a very experienced coach in the Champions League, when he was a coach at Barcelona, ​​a tactically understood game Pep Guardiola was very familiar with Real Madrid and Pep Guardiola understands the pressure and way of playing Real Madrid very well, because in the Spanish league Pep Guardiola has a difficult match against Real Madrid, so it is certain that the strategy in the second leg will change, and Manchester City will play hard to secure victory in the first leg.

I believe Manchester City won't take this match lightly, they will go all out to win this game, the players have suffered failures in the champions League together in several seasons so I think they have learn, this trophy is very important to Manchester City fans they have not won it before,so they have to do it for the fans and for there coach Pep Guadiola who last won it at Barcelona many years ago, he has tried and have been unlucky not to have lift it again with so many semi final he has lost, the last time he was face with an English side Chelsea and he lost to the London club so the players need to win for him and themselves.

Also don't forget that Diliga Champions Experience is capital for them in dealing with opponents, because for clubs who are experienced knowing how to get out of pressure, especially if they play at Real Madrid, this is very difficult for Manchester City, aggregate excellence is also very influential, because Real Madrid Only need one goal without conceding, this is enough for them to advance to the final, interesting for us to wait for who is more ready to play in the second leg, because small mistakes will make both of them eliminated

Man City is a very good team. They are playing very well right now. And they also have an advantage of 1 goal. They are playing better than Real Madrid but Real Madrid always performs better on big stages. Now they also don't have the pressure of winning La Liga. So they will try their best for sure. But Man City knows that and will be ready for this. And the coach of Man City is very familiar with what Real Madrid can do. So should be easy for Manchester City.

I believe Manchester City won't take this match lightly, they will go all out to win this game, the players have suffered failures in the champions League together in several seasons so I think they have learn, this trophy is very important to Manchester City fans they have not won it before,so they have to do it for the fans and for there coach Pep Guadiola who last won it at Barcelona many years ago, he has tried and have been unlucky not to have lift it again with so many semi final he has lost, the last time he was face with an English side Chelsea and he lost to the London club so the players need to win for him and themselves.

Man City will surely take things seriously. They will surely put all their strength trying to win against Real Madrid and go to the finals. In my opinion, Liverpool got it really easy. I am expecting the final to be Manchester City versus Liverpool but it all depends on the second leg between Manchester City and Real Madrid.

Man City have won Agg 1 goal but the second leg will be played at home to Real Madrid and also Real Madrid have made several comebacks this season, so I think their mentality is very high, especially since they have just confirmed themselves as La Liga champions and in the second leg match later anything is still possible.

[AakZaki]

True , the all england final seems to be the ideal one.
real madrid might fight back at bernabeu but yeah my prediction pretty much the same as well as yours.. the draw is the best result for real madrid to get , and manchester city getting closer to get their first ever champions league trophy.
~snip~

No, Madrid's second leg will win. So I think the best final is Madrid vs Liverpool.  Madrid have prepared carefully. Even today they faced Espanyol by installing different players and giving some of their core players a break. Although in the second half Benzema and Vinicius Junior still entered the game. Even Benzema scored a goal. Madrid have never won in some UCL games, but their motives tomorrow are different. I'm sure they will be more focused because the League Champions are already theirs.

yes, against Espanyol Madrid did rest some core players. Madrid must focus on the Champions League.
Madrid will play very seriously, they are playing at home and have to catch up with goals. The second leg can end with a penalty shootout to determine which team will enter the final.
I also support Madrid meeting Liverpool in the final rather than having to see 2 English teams playing it.
