I can say there is a higher chance for Manchester City to win that game against Real Madrid because of the recent names we saw from both teams. But in the game between Ac Milan and Inter Milan, both teams have the same situation and that's hard to predict the game between Ac Milan and Inter Milan because Inter Milan is a stable team and we can't as how they are going to perform.
Although Manchester City has a higher chance than Real Madrid by looking at the names of their players, as you said. But Real Madrid has a manager which is very experienced in this events. So it's still 50/50 for me Sir, actually same as match Inter vs Milan. All team has a chance to qualify for the final, it's just that maybe there will be a team which will make a mistake in this semi-final, because little mistake can have a huge impact to them.
As you sad the chances in both matches are 50/50 since in semifinals anything can happen. Looking by form I would say Inter and ManCity have more positivity from recant games and looks their form is better right now.

At UCL, Real Madrid plays on another level. If Manchester City underestimates them, Real Madrid is full of players who can punish them. They should take their Real Madrid match very seriously if they don't want to get a big shock. I think Manchester City is the team that is very close to passing the tour. I'm sure it will be a tough match.
Champions league is the second biggest league in football, I would say only a stupid team or stupid player will underestimate this match Cheesy

I think most people have once a time in their life had a competition, the adrenaline and the feeling want to beat every participants are unbearable. Manchester City is a club which not become a champion in this league too, so there's no chance they would underestimate Real Madrid. Actually Real Madrid should be the club which could underestimate other club.
People who don't understand football miss a game like UCL. I never do the stupid thing of missing a UCL match. I watch and enjoy all UCL matches. The most thrilling and exciting atmosphere I have seen in UCL matches.  

On the 10th, the football world will see another thrilling and exciting match, the semi-final match between Manchester City and Real Madrid. Regardless, one would not want to miss this highly exciting match.

AC Milan vs Inter Milan will be the match that will be in the semifinals of the Champions League. They must have known each other's strengths since they were teams from the same league. AC Milan looks more prepared than Inter Milan, but that is no guarantee that they will qualify for the final. Still in the match later that will determine everything. Fate was in their hands now, once they made a mistake in this match they would be punished with defeat.

It's true that Pep Guardiola once said that and it seems that Pep's words will forever haunt other teams competing in the Champions League, including his own team, Manchester City. There is no doubt about Real Madrid's magic in the Champions League, they can always do things beyond the capabilities of most other teams and that is what makes Real Madrid so feared or respected. What is clear is that Pep Guardiola's mission is now 100% focused on defeating Real Madrid first because if they make it to the finals then he won't worry too much about his next opponent.

Real madrid is always having something new. This club is king of comeback. Many people have known so well how many times real madrid was doing crazy comeback. Manchester city shall have taken it as serious measurements. I meant let's say that if real madrid will be losing in santiago bernabeu but iw will always make comeback when it was even playing away. The mentality from real madrid's players has been tested so many times. It's the time for ancelotti to give UCL again for the second time in a row.
It will become a great achievements by ancelotti if his club will able to take UCL trophy again this season. Im feeling so confidence with the current composition that owned by real madrid at this moment.
The bad results in the previous matches meant nothing for me as real madrid was not using the best squad against sociedad and girona. We will see that king to come back again to get its UCL trophy.
The nickname of the king of comebacks is indeed very appropriate for Real Madrid and currently only Real Madrid is capable of doing this in Europe's highest competition. Opponents are always overwhelmed when facing Real Madrid, especially English teams like Chelsea and Liverpool have repeatedly become victims. But Manchester City also experienced the same thing last season and I think if they don't learn from their mistakes then they will be sent back to England by Real Madrid.

The composition of Real Madrid is almost always the same every season and there are only a few regenerations, but overall this team still has a winning mentality that not all teams around the world have and it seems that the legacy of the seniors who have previously left Real Madrid has always left an imprint on their minds. the entire Real Madrid squad. Manchester city this time must be more vigilant and not let their guard down if they want to take revenge. Apart from all that, I really believe and support Real Madrid to be able to beat Manchester City again.

The Champions League is one of the best leagues. Similarly, Manchester City and Real Madrid are one of the best teams in the Champions League. Both these teams will be playing in the semi-finals of the Champions League, can anyone imagine how competitive this match will be?
there is no doubt that Manchester City and Real Madrid are the best European teams at the moment and of course this match will be very interesting and much awaited by football lovers around the world.
Manchester City has a great desire to be able to win the UCL, in the last few seasons they have kept trying to improve to become a stronger team but the desired trophy has not come.
and this season they will try again with even better strength.

last season Manchester City was stopped by Real Madrid in the semifinals, and of course this season there is a revenge mission from Manchester City.
You are right, this match to me is the finals because any of this club that can qualify to the finals will definitely win the trophy. The most interesting part of it is that,these two clubs will play first and second leg,making it more lively and competitive compare to when it is in the finals. There is room for revenge for Man city,since it is a repetition of what happened last season and city shouldn't allow what happened last year repeats itself again. It is pay back time and for this city will take this match very personal. As for Real Madrid, I know that they know how to play city very well with a winning strategy. I am relaxing to see if city will fall for Madrid again or will fight like a man to defeat Real Madrid,because city is in a strong form.

What do you think about the AC Milan team? I don't think SME Loans can secure a victory against Inter Milan in the semi-finals of the Champions League. Because Inter Milan is performing very well in other leagues. But luck can't be told AC Milan can luckily secure the victory. It is not possible to predict the semi-finals.
It's not easy to make predictions for these two teams in the semifinals of the Champions League if you look at the performances of the two from their respective leagues, because these two teams are very close in their own league standings with a number of points that are not much different so I just assume that their matches in the semifinals of the Champions League this time it can take place more fiercely by exerting all the abilities they have.

Guardiola should be looking for the best alternative and means to get Real Madrid out of the Champions League this season by now. For several years, the club has been a threat to him winning the trophy. He should have mastered their strategy by now and be able to defeat Real Madrid in the league this time around.
Several coaches, including Guardiola, who have experienced how to play with Madrid, always admit that Ancelotti can always release his players from the opponent's pressure. Therefore, it's not surprising that Pep Guardiola said that if any club wants to win the Champions League trophy, they only need to conquer one thing first, namely to beat Madrid and the road to the trophy is always easier. Even though he is currently being strengthened by Haaland as executor, Pep Guardiola still cannot calm down and is always on his guard.
Manchester city needs to be careful about Real Madrid and they should not use their performance in laliga to conclude they are weak can be won easily. It is not easy to knock out team like Real Madrid that have won the Champions League several time , they have the  secrete in winning champions league.
Of course it would be a big mistake if Manchester City tried to live up to the standards of Real Madrid by looking at them in La Liga. It is possible to measure the strength of opponents in different competitions, but now what they have learned is that Real Madrid can always make impressive surprises when they are in the Champions League. Real Madrid is a team that cannot be underestimated when they are in the Champions League, even though their performances at the domestic level are not good.

At UCL, Real Madrid plays on another level. If Manchester City underestimates them, Real Madrid is full of players who can punish them. They should take their Real Madrid match very seriously if they don't want to get a big shock. I think Manchester City is the team that is very close to passing the tour.

The Italian top teams have been so erratic this season (except Napoli), thus this game is so unpredictable, it is fairly even at 50-50 imo, though i think the advantage might have shifted a little bit to Inter Milan's side because of the Injury to Rafael Leao against Lazio in the weekend. Even though his manager said it does not look serious, there is still a cloud of doubt as to whether Rafael Leao will be available for Wednesday's SF first leg against Inter Milan, the Portuguese superstar is so crucial to everything that AC Milan does, and if he does not play, Inter might actually have the advantage.

Milan and Inter have worked hard to reach the semi-finals. Statistically they are in the same state. They are not very good in Serie A. Their chances of qualifying are still the same, but I chose AC Milan to qualify for the final.

Likewise myself, i have a feeling that this is Manchester City's season to win the Treble, it looks to have already been written in the skies and not even Real Madrid can stop them from getting into their 2nd CL final in their history; City would win this game both home and away.

Their chances are still the same at this time. Sometimes there are always surprising things in football. So I still hope that Real Madrid will qualify. Although I see Man City at the moment looks very perfect. This season has been the best moment for Pep because he has perfect players.

For the Real Madrid vs Man city match, I will probably favor Man City in that match. Although I also know Real Madrid have better experience and mentality than Man City. but I see Man city's performance this season is even better than last season so this season Man City will definitely not make careless mistakes like last season, namely when Man city almost won in the second leg of last season's semi-finals. but Man City had to lose because of their carelessness in the last minutes that allowed Real Madrid to score 3 goals in the extra minutes of the match. And I'm sure Man City will not repeat this.
This will be a tough battle for both teams and I think the match between the two will be a very interesting spectacle. Real Madrid proved that they are indeed better than Man City last season, but if we look at their current performance, I think the situation will be different, Real Madrid managed to get rid of Chelsea before, but Man City is on a very different level to Chelsea at the moment. In addition, Man City certainly has a very high motivation to avenge their defeat last season, and this season they already have Haaland which could be a nightmare for Real Madrid.

We are already seeing Manchester City or Real Madrid to be the champions of this season's champion league tournament. Manchester City vs Real Madrid match is the top talk.  it will be exciting to see wonders in this final phase. For a very long time, we a yet to see another Italian side emerge as champion in the champion League tournament ever since Milan in 2007. This season I am also seeing the two Italian teams as a threat, especially AC Milan who is yet to break into the top 4 zone in their domestic league

The two matches in the Semi-finals seem to be really difficult to predict. A few days ago I might have thought Inter Milan would be the favorites against Ac Milan. but then I saw that Ac Milan also played very well in their latest match in Serie A. So now I'm starting to think again and don't know which team I should favourite.

Smart is not enough, there must be skills
Guardiola will definitely measure the opponent's strength in order to find a gap through the Real Madrid defense, the combination of Haaland, Kevin De Bruyne and Mahrez can be relied on by Guardiola to win at the Santiago Bernabeu.
I don't think Riyad Mahrez is going to start against Real Madrid tomorrow, i'm pretty sure Pep is going to play Bernado Silva over him in that right side of attack, whilst Mahrez is a very brilliant footballer, his work rate leaves a lot to be desired, and in big games such as this, when Pep needs all his players to contribute, both in defense and attack, Mahrez more often than not doesn't get picked.

Having said that, Bernado Silva is an excellent footballer, and with him, Halland and Grealish in attack, Real Madrid's defense would have their hands full, i'm pretty sure it'd be a midfield trio of Rodri, Gundogan and Kevin de bruyne, i can't really predict the defense, with Ake out of this game due to injury, i expect Pep to make some tweaks in defense, and we'd see about that when the teamsheets are out tomorrow.
In the quarter-finals Riyad Mahrez was not played, meaning that Bernardo Silva will indeed start because this is Pep Guardiola's wish to be their right-wing filled by Bernardo Silva.
We don't know how this formation will take place later, but for the usual Champions League matches, Mahrez will always be a backup and he didn't even play against Bayern Munich.

I see from the previous formation that the lone striker was Haaland while for the bracelets with Bernardo Silva, De Bruyne Gundogan and Grealish, often only look at that formation but Pep will of course always change and see from his attack situation.

Odds for Real Madrid 3.15 and Man City 2.22 are a bit difficult. Of course seeing Real Madrid playing at the Bernabeu is also an advantage with big odds.

As we are approaching the game of the year between Real Madrid and Manchester City, the question that is dominating the discussions is about Haaland vs. Mbappe. I thought I would share an interesting overview, but is about a month old so two games are missing for Haaland in the overview.



Haaland actually stands at 27 games and 35 goals. His goal rate is not human. There is more interesting data in terms of his coolness when it comes to scoring goals as he scores a lot early in the game.



He has actually scored one more goal in the first half than in the second half. I think this is important data because you want a striker who doesn't need too much time to be ready to score.

And this is more interesting data as it shows that Haaland's goal rate is unmatched and has always been unmatched given his age even when you compare him to Messi and Ronaldo. The interesting fact here is that he keeps that momentum and wasn't only lucky during his first year or two.



I didn't recall Van Nistelrooy to be that strong, but it took Ronaldo 74 games to score 30 goals and Messi 48 games to score 30 goals. Even Mbappe needed 51 games. I think it is also important to consider that Haaland didn't play in some of the best teams in the world when he scored most of his Champions League goals so far.

Everyone will be watching him and I am excited to keep following how his goal rate develops in the future, but it doesn't seem as if it were to change soon.

As Guardiola said recently, Haaland is an incredible machine!

This is the true final for Real Madrid as I have no doubt that the Champions of Champions League this year is going to be either Real Madrid either Manchester City.I have seen Inter and Milan how they play and their quality is way far behind compared to the one of Real or City.For me though in the encounter of tomorrow for Real vs City,Real maybe playing at home but I am afraid this won't be enough to stop the City of this moment which they are like a mean machine who can beat everyone,if Real indeed manages to win at Bernabeu would very good for them but still when they got to face City in the home of City I am sure City can overcome any result Real may get tomorrow.
