This season is a very good opportunity for Arsenal to take advantage of their match with Bayern Munich because Bayern Munich's conditions are very different. This means that Arsenal has a chance to beat Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals of this season's Champions League, although Arsenal themselves must also remain vigilant about Bayern Munich even though the team has started to lose frequently in its own domestic league. Because when playing in the Champions League, Bayern Munich could come back and surprise many people.

Playing a game on a close date also has some advantages of course I agree. Match fitness of Manchester City players would be higher than Real Madrid players for sure. However I'm not sure whether we can say the same thing about fatigue level as well.    Because the disadvantageous side is Manchester City players' having a game only a couple of days ago like I said.

We will see how things turn out. In the end big Premier League teams are used to playing in a really tight schedule like this one. I don't have an expectation from them to play poorly. But at least home Real Madrid might be able to do good things.

Paris Saint Germain will first host Barcelona in the quarter-final first leg, but before they meet, it is very unfortunate that Paris Saint Germain had to be held to a draw by the club which is at the bottom of the standings. Even though they played without some of their main players, it was still a bad result for a club like Parisian club Germain.

It is very likely that Paris Siant Germain will try to take advantage of their status as hosts, they will definitely try hard to win this match to make their work easier in the second leg. However, this is not an easy task for them, because Barcelona cannot be underestimated. Even though Barcelona is widely considered to be in decline, they are still a dangerous club and they also show that when they are in 2nd place in La Liga now.

Paris Saint Germain is a club that targets every season to win their first Champions League trophy, but until now they have always failed, will they fail again this season? Let's wait and see.

Arsenal needs to take advantage of the actual situation of Bayern Munich is a golden opportunitie for them to reach the semifinals on this Champions League competition. If i dont remember bad the last time they reach the semifinals were in the 2005/6 season no?

I know Manchester city plays offensively and doesn't allow opponent to take control of the ball but we can not just count out real Madrid like that. Madrid is very experienced team in UCL and they have been able to turn around impossible situations. However, Ancelotti should be cautious and not attempt to play defense game with Manchester city because I still remember how defending game turn against them last season. Madrid have all the qualities to play aggressively against City and not just sit back and defend. I would prefer to place bet on goals rather than 1X2 because it will be a difficult one to decide.

You are right, in previous seasons we were used to seeing Bayern Munich appear dominant in the Champions League, but now due to their inconsistency in the Bundesliga, their chances of winning over Arsenal are lower. Arsenal performance has improved much better, in contrast to Bayern Munich which has experienced a setback. It is very logical that Arsenal are now the favorites to win, considering that the first leg will also be held at the Emirates. This is the season where Arsenal can get their revenge, and progress to the semifinals they have not reached for a long time.

However, this is all only on paper, it could be that Bayern Munich will perform beyond predictions, which in my opinion could show a different performance in the Champions League, even though we know that in the Bundesliga they are inconsistent. However, Bayern Munich has quite good experience in European competitions, they cannot be underestimated although they are currently unstable. Apart from that, Tuchel has good squad depth, especially an experienced striker like Harry Kane, Arteta must have a special strategy to stem his movements.

The match will certainly be a difficult match for both teams because indeed both are required to be able to give victory so that it can be easier to undergo the second leg later, besides you, of course many members here are indeed favorites Arsenal as winners in the first leg match later, in addition to being the host in the first leg, of course Arsenal has a better performance at this time than Bayern Munich,  Arsenal's performance in the domestic league for now we cannot doubt because they have indeed managed to go 7 games without defeat and of course it is contrary to Bayern Munich which is currently down in the league.

In fact, I think Bayern Munich's poor performance in the league will be a deadly weapon for Arsenal, because after all Bayern Munich will of course be underestimated in that game so maybe they will be able to play carefree and of course surprises will probably be a factor that changes all our perceptions of Bayern Munich, I personally am reluctant to underestimate Bayern Munich in the Champions League even though their performance is very bad in the league,  Do you think, Tuchel will waste his chance to get the one trophy left for them this season?

Home advantage for real Madrid is something they actually hold in high esteem and would give everything for it not letting any other This becoming the reason they lose because at home they have the cheering of their fans present in the stadium and failing them is something they wouldn't be doing because asides making the fans happy they have gotten a whole lot at stake. To play for that's why.

Manchester city the defending champions are trying to make sure they are going to be able to defend the trophy again but then that doesn't mean they are going to definitely win and Real Madrid is aswell considering to win the champions league after a while since they last won the champions league so both teams has got something for which they are going to be determined to play and whosever wins gets to proceed in the champions league and the loosing side may have to try again next season. Manchester city currently is struggling with both their domestic League and the champions League.

If they get to crash out of the champions league it's very likely Manchester city may end this season without a trophy and it will be really such a poor record against them because they are uses to getting something from every season and making sure to not get to the end of the league without winning anything from the league. Real Madrid is aiming to be a win of two leagues this season aswell but then lets see how it goes between them both

The most awaited match will be here starting tomorrow and let's go back in time about the meeting of these two teams that are candidates for the champions league. As we know, meetings between Real Madrid and Manchester City always present fierce matches that require emotions for the players. It's not often that we see a miracle that always happens in this match.

If we look at the H2H of both teams since the 12/13 season, it is certain that Real Madrid has never won when competing at the Etihad Stadium and that is a fantastic record for Manchester City at a home they are so proud of. On the other hand, Real Madrid suffered a defeat when they hosted Manchester City at the Santiago Bernabeu. The rest was mostly dominated by draws from these two teams.

The first leg will see Real Madrid as hosts and the possibility of Real Madrid losing could still happen again. It's just that looking at the depth of the squad now both teams are at the same level even though Real Madrid doesn't have a mainstay striker number 9. Who will win? Of course it will be something that really makes us curious.

I see that Real Madrid is now much different than when it lost miserably to Man City in the Champions League semi-finals last year. For the third consecutive season, Real Madrid and Manchester City will face off. Both have very high-quality players on their squads. It will undoubtedly be a fascinating match.
Real Madrid Not only has the physical advantage of being able to rest completely for 10 days compared to their opponents, but coach Ancelotti also welcomes the return of midfielder Militao. Meanwhile, coach Pep Guardiola will not have the services of Ake and Kyle Walker, which is a big loss for Man City because the home team has speedy stars on the wings, like Vinicius and Rodrygo. However, with Kevin De Bruyne and Rodri in very high form.

Based on recent performances and player statistics, I guess the most likely outcome of this match is Real Madrid winning, with a probability of 44%. A win for Manchester City has a probability of 32%, and a draw has a probability of 24%.

I do agree that it is not that easy for Bayern to get that win, Arsenal has been quite good this season and currently even leading premier league as well. I believe that we should consider the situation to be very sensitive as well.

I believe that if Bayern really wants to get the win, they need to play much better, currently they are playing a lot worse than they normally do. Looking at how much Arsenal improved in the last two seasons where they barely missed the title last year, and getting better this season, versus the fact that Bayern barely won last year and already lost it this year, I would say that Arsenal may have a better chance. We are not used to seeing that, but that is the reality at the current moment.

The bookers are favoring Manchester city because they are the defending champions, and they have more matured players than Real Madrid. However, we cannot use those to judge the outcome of tomorrow's match, because it is going to be a strong fight between both clubs.

I cannot predict the winner, and this is why I am not going to place my bet, but I will prefer to just watch the match with friends and enjoy all the fun from it. Perhap, Real Madrid would be able to win the match based on home advantage and they also have young strikers who are deadly. This is when we will check their striking force how strong it is, because they need to penetrate City defense and find the back of the net. I believe that Ancelotti must have learnt from his mistakes last season.

If you look at the statistics of meetings between Arsenal and Bayern, it is not in favour of Arsenal. The Gunners won 4 times, 3 times there was a draw, 7 victories in the active of Bayern. These teams played 5 times at the playoff stage, and Arsenal could not win once. But now many people are favouring Arsenal as the team is having a terrific season. Bayern have some advantages though. The Munich players are focused on the Champions League. If they win this tournament, they can rectify a disappointing season and Thomas Tuchel will retain his coaching post. Bayern have little chance to win the Bundesliga title. So perhaps the Munich side have been thinking about the upcoming match in London and are preparing well for it.

Referring to the predicted line up for the two teams, it seems that these two coaches will implement their favorite patterns. City with 4-2-3-1, Real Madrid with a 4-3-2-1 pattern. If that's true, I'm sure City will have more control of ball possession in this match. Apart from that, there will be player rotation carried out by the two coaches. However, this is only a prediction, it does not determine the pattern that will be applied by the two teams when the quarter-final match is held.

As you said, I also favor City in this match. especially. if Pep Guardiola applies his flagship pattern with 3-2-4-1. At least, City controlled the game more in midfield. Well, if we refer to betting options, there is no change regarding the odds provided by betting bookies. Real Madrid with @2.80, while City with @2.48. There is a slight difference in the odds presented. City is slightly superior. It's a little strange, considering that this match will be held at the Santiago Bernabeu. I hope that this match will present a very exciting and worthy fight for us to enjoy. although, my estimation is that City will win over Madrid in this first leg.

The maturity of Manchester City's players is one of their advantages in this match. Real Madrid does have a great squad, but their maturity is not very mature.
I'm curious what strategy Ancelotti will apply in this match. Will they field senior players from the start, especially in midfield, or will they trust completely in young players, or will they try to collaborate both. Usually Ancelotti gives alternate time and rotates more during the match. But in a game like this I don't know what he will do.
The role of very experienced players will be very valuable in very tight matches like this, because they can read the game better. But we can just trust Ancelotti completely. I am sure he will also give his best so that they succeed in this tight match.

Arsenal - Bayern Munich

This is a game that looking at it quickly, we could say that Arsenal would win the game easily because Bayern is going through a bad phase, but we cannot forget that Arsenal also had difficulties in beating Porto who It is also a team that is going through a bad phase in the Portuguese league, by that I mean that in my opinion in this game the odds should be very balanced, because I see both teams at the same level, despite Bayern being very bad in the Bundesliga they still They are the type of team that are strong in the European Champions League and cannot be underestimated, which is why even though I bet on Arsenal to win, I still see very low odds in favor of Arsenal, the risk is too high for odds of 1.77

Real Madrid - Manchester City

this is a very complicated game to predict the result, both teams are very strong with manchester city having their good players available for this game so we will have a game in which manchester city can win the game, real madrid is a team that when they are in that competition they can perform very well, they are strong in defense when they are in that phase of that competition, which is why in my opinion it will not be a game in which Manchester City will score many goals, something like 3 or more goals. Now talking about Real Madrid's attack, in my opinion it will be the problem for Real Madrid, they don't have great attackers like Manchester City, but Real Madrid can still score a goal.

I understand why you're interested in Manchester City. Without a question, they're on a roll. But dont write Real Madrid off just yet. Its very helpful to play at home, at the Bernabeu. Its their job to get the crowd excited about big games and make it count. The numbers might show that City is better, but Real Madrid has that killer sense and Champions League grit. Many times, they've won from the worst spots. Who wants it more and plays smarter is more important than who is better right now. The scores dont really reflect how close this game is, and Real always has a surprise or two planned.

I think everyone here agrees. Real Madrid vs City will be the match with the highest number of spectators of all the matches in the quarter-finals. This feels like a final match. Both teams are favorites to win this season. Both teams have the same chance of winning. City looks stronger than Madrid but Real Madrid can play very solidly and can win even with just one goal.

The first leg will be played at the Santiago Bernabéu. This could be an advantage for Madrid. If they can win the match at home it will make City play under pressure in the second leg. But if Madrid loses or draws this match, City's chances of qualifying for the semifinals will be even greater. I choose Madrid to win this match.

The match has indeed been highly anticipated by world football lovers today, because indeed the two best teams from two different leagues will have a tough match later to ensure their escape tickets to the next round, I think the Manchester City vs Madrid match will be an interesting spectacle, but unfortunately the match was played at the same time as the match between Arsenal and Bayern Munich,  Because I think the match between Arsenal and Bayern Munich is also worth watching actually.

Regarding the betting market that is more favorite to Manchester City in the match, of course it is very reasonable in my opinion, because actually Manchester City has a good performance and also the quality of a more qualified squad, but I think the bookmakers forget if Madrid actually play at the Bernabeu and the fan support factor should also be one of the advantages possessed by Madrid in the match,  In addition, I think the hectic schedule that Manchester City currently has is certainly in Madrid's favor, especially Manchester City only have 3 days to recover their players stamina after their last match in the Premier League.

This is for sure, the views of the Real - City match will significantly exceed the Bayern and Arsenal match, and this is not surprising. I was a little surprised, when I saw that the odds for Real's victory were 2.97 versus 2.53 for City, that is, at least slightly, but according to the bookmakers, City has an advantage, despite the fact that they will play in Madrid.

I'm almost sure that Guardiola will play for a draw, this was his strategy in many playoff matches last season, when the main goal was not to lose away, and win at home. But for Ancelotti, only a win would be an acceptable result. Of the significant losses, these are Walker for City and Alaba for Real, but in this case, the loss of Walker for the City defense is a more significant loss.
