It’s just funny to me whenever I hear people saying Real Madrid is the king of champions league and they believe Real Madrid will defeat Manchester City in the second leg of match. If you think Real Madrid is the king of champions league, then you should know Manchester city is not also a small club and they are also very dangerous, lots of people are listing the dangerous players which Real Madrid are having but we all know Manchester city are also having dangerous players.

The chances of the two clubs winning the match is just equal, I don’t believe in any club having higher chances and if am to select any club that I think might win, then I will be selecting Manchester City because they are playing at their stadium.

Wow, if this is how the case is,then I must say that the match will be in favour of Manchester city because all their players are in form and will be playing the second leg match. I guess that they are very lucky this season for three Real Madrid players to on injured and wouldn't feature in the second leg match.

Manchester city should use this opportunity wisely in order for them to make a revenge on Real Madrid  on what Real Madrid did them last year in the semifinals. If Manchester city shoukd win Real Madrid,automatically I believe that they will be the winner of this season UCL. It means that this will be a great year for them to achieve two major trophies,which are EPL and UCL.

Manchester City are a difficult team to play at the moment especially when they have something important at stake, for seasons Manchester City have always dominated towards the end of the season so I expected it will difficult having them lose a game at this final stages of the season which they are already proving my point. Real Madrid have a history competing in the Champions league, could this be another victory year for them or will City finally get a break through in this competition? I think the second leg tie will decide that.

Benzema, Rodrygo and Alaba all are injured now and will not play against Manchester City as it seems. This must be a huge disappointment for Real Madrid. Because they are all critical players for Real Madrid now. Benzema and Rodrygo are already very important in the attacking line but now they will nearly completely rely on Vinicius Junior from now on. Ancelotti will use the same strategy again as it seems.  

Alaba looked also decent about defending Haaland in the first leg. In his absence Rudiger will have a bigger responsibility to keep him away from scoring goals. He was successful in the first leg maybe but here his job might be harder. I'm seeing Manchester City closer to the finale now.

Camavinga was also injured against Getafe though according to their manager Ancelloti the injury is not that serious hopefully he will be fit to play against Man City on Wednesday because he had been one of the best player of the team this season, in the case of Benzema, according to some news reports he was rested against Getafe for the UCL return leg. Man City will capitalize on their home advantage at Etihad of course I expect the team to dominate possession and press their opponent very well, however Real Madrid will play counter attack via Vinicius Jr who is a very pacy winger with Benzema taking the striking role any clear cut chances will be well utilized by him, I am predicting a win by either side.

Their matches at the Etihad are always with very high confidence but on the other hand for now Madrid also do not want their title as champions for this competition to be taken for granted.
Now, looking at the Madrid players who have been deployed in the domestic league, it looks like they do have some energy there but I still haven't received any news about Benzema because he wasn't in the squad for Madrid against Getafe.

With their current performance, it will indeed look very difficult for Milan, regardless of whether their current condition is not safe. Moreover, seeing them this week who also had to lose to Spezia in the domestic competition, it was indeed very difficult for Milan, especially Inter, who were in good condition.

It looks like they have to stop in the semi-finals but things like that are still very good for them if you look at it from before this is the best achievement for Milan in the Champions League in several seasons that they always do.

Well, I would say that things can look very different here, I am with the fact that many bet on City, but the Experience that Real Madrid has is another level,it has no comparison, I would say that things here are different when it comes to being In these instances,Madrid is the Defending Champion, and even so they know that they have to stop Haaland because he is the man who can bring the most danger to Courtois's goal, if they manage to stop him I would say that Madrid will find it easy or relatively more comfortable make your game to win.

One of the best games we will have, but of course, the first game is Exciting, nothing like watching the second, personally I think that things here happen like anything else,but the second game Between City and Madrid will be heart-stopping, I think that despite everything that will win will be Madrid and will go to the final, I am still standing that the final should be Milan vs Madrid, I don't know if I don't like it for saying so, but it is what I appreciate best, they are also teams that they have given everything and that is what is sought in fútbol, that they always fight for this and that they give the best show.

These players are key for them to win any competition, Personally I think that Ancelotti's secret weapon is those players plus Camavinga, but the alarms went off because it seems Camavinga has a not-so-strong Sprain , but he still needs attention, and Well, the Match with City is necessary and a lot , the Player does his job very well, so Ancelotti is a fact that he Wants to count on him, and I'm sure that all Madrid Fans want them to play.

I think it's enough that they are in pretty good form, in their league they need 3 points in three games to win. I mean, they can go all out now without leaving their energy for the main championship, because there they will have time to rest and win once to win. So we are in for some spectacular football.

That logic shouldn't apply. Why wouldn't I only ask myself whether Real Madrid has the players to win a game against Manchester City or not? In my opinion Real Madrid has the players that are able to beat any opponent in any game, no matter whether it takes place at home or away. What does it matter whether they are a bit weaker at home or away? This is a one game situation now since they tied the first leg and Real Madrid is definitely able to beat Manchester City. This is now just a question of probabilities based on the teams' strengths in general, but also at home and away. Since Manchester City is a monster in general, and even stronger monster at home where they won 16 out of 18 games with 59:17 goals, Manchester City has the better chances I think. But we are still talking about Real Madrid. If it was over already, why would anyone here tune in? And I am sure that most of the guys here are going to watch it

I agree with you, Benzema and Rodrigo can make a difference in Real Madrid's game. Especially if it is a very crucial match for them. Last season that destroyed Manchester City was Rodrigo, he can be the hero of the victory to successfully get rid of Manchester City. At the end of the spear, Benzema is really needed by Real Madrid at this time, because there is no player who can replace his role in attack.

You need Benzema and Rodrygo if you want to beat City. Vinicius is also very good, but the supply must also be good. In the 1st half, City had things well under control against Madrid, but Madrid still took the lead. But coming back to Manchester City, surely it will have to be a hit for them to win the title? They can't really be or are better than now with Haaland in the rush hour. I think he's going to make a difference in the coming week, but Rudiger had him in the bag quite a bit last week. And Benzema must also have his moment, but he also failed to make his mark on the defense at Manchester City.

Not official confirmed about Karim  Benzema and Rodrygo has injured, both them not play last games in La Liga and I sure Carlo Ancelotti save them for Champion League match against Manchester City on second leg, no doubt with Manchester City has the same qualities between main and substitute player. Pep Guardiola not difficult with starting line up because he has many option when any player injured, but last confirmed seems only Nathan Aké has injured and absent on first leg.

Real Madrid has more experienced in Champion League than Manchester City, its will advantage for Madrid winning on second leg match against Manchester City and regarding last games in La Liga against Getafe not any issues with player injured except with Camavinga have change last few minutes before game ended.

I'm just worried about the condition of Madrid's players who have often been injured this season. Benzema's condition is not fine, Rodrygo is also injured, Alaba is also experiencing the same thing. Madrid needs Benzema for every match. But I am also worried about the physical condition of Luka Modric, because he has a dual function, which must be to organize attacks from the midfield and also function as an auxiliary defense. The performance of Manchester City players is very good this season, they rarely experience injuries. I hope Madrid will surprise their fans.

Since Real Madrid can't perform well in home matches, I think they won't be able to win in away matches either. Manchester City have been very strong at home this season. And this season's Champions League title they want to win by any means. Also, City are a very strong team this season. The bonding between team players is very strong. At the same time, Guardiola's match strategy in this season's Champions League is excellent. I think Manchester City will qualify for the final if they don't make any big mistakes in their home match against Madrid.

Man City will be favourites with most, if not all bookies. Real Madrid are definitely capable of winning though, they have top class players all over the pitch. Man City have a history of choking in the CL, can they finally end their wait and win it? Should be a really good game for the neutral.

That would be the doom for any of the sides to underestimate the others capability because the two teams are well aware of each others capability and for sure Manchester city will might have learnt that the hard way owing to the same case in which they performed brilliantly last season in the champions league and were knocked out of the competition by the los blancos. So this time they will definitely be very cautious not to let same mistake happen twice.

They look unbeatable in the English Premier League and if you sincerely watched the first leg, think Madrid had to score first and Manchester City now found a way to equalize. All I know about City is that recently, they haven't gone to Champions League with a weak team. They are always in their best form and always the best team but the atmosphere of semi finals and finals is what City is not used to.
They could suffer defeat against Madrid if Vinicius Junior should replicate what he did in the first leg and also Rudiger is able to mark out Haaland.

Opportunities to qualify for the Finals for Manchester City and Real Madrid are still the same for now with an aggregate of 1-1. And I also think that Real Madrid will not be too affected by home or away matches. Both of them will definitely continue to play to the maximum wherever the match is held.

But for Manchester City I predict there will be more mental improvement in the second leg later. And keep in mind that Manchester City very, very rarely loses when playing as a host. They very rarely disappoint their supporters at the Etihad stadium. And I will probably be very confident to save my bet on Manchester City in the second leg later.
