First match on EUFA Champion League semifinal between Manchester City vs Real Madrid, both team have incredible performance on domestic and UEFA Champion League but have advantage with Real Madrid got almost 1 week rest before facing with Manchester City, different with home team Manchester City just have match last two days after winning from Watford. I think have chance for Real Madrid although with away match for getting good result on first leg and could be good salary when against with second leg on Bernabeu Stadium.

This is the home match of Real Madrid. Real Madrid is very strong in the Bernabeu. And they are very tactful. However, much of their match strategy depends on Benzema. On the other hand, Manchester City's coach is Guardiola. He is a very experienced coach. And he was the coach of Barcelona for a long time. So he is well aware of Real Madrid's tactics and style of play. Moreover, City is a very stable team. And so even if it's Real Madrid's home match, the chances of both teams winning are equal.

For me, it is quite simple. If Benzema scores Real Madrid wins, if Benzema doesn't score Real Madrid doesn't win.

So, I think it will be really important for Manchester City to keep Benzema under control which obviously I am not sure is going to be easy to do.
I know that Real Madrid is playing really well in the Champions Trophy but I am still going to say that Manchester City should be the winners.
I think a draw in the first leg is going to be a good result for Manchester City.

I think the bookmakers are almost evenly matched for Manchester City vs Real Madrid. After all, this is a very exciting event and no one will miss a bet So far, although Manchester City are still seeded, Madrid will remain consistent to make the distance further. At the same time their target is to be able to take Leg 1 points very well. Benzema was prepared very optimally and became the center point of Madrid that can still be relied on to escape from control. We'll see later what precise strategy will be applied by the two.

Man City vs Real Madrid 1.5/4.3/6.2
Liverpool vs Villareal 1.3/5.8/11.5

Bookmakers are pretty much sure we will see wins of the English home teams in the first leg. So the main question will be: How high will they be able to win? Anything more than 1 goal difference should be pretty much impossible to catch up by the Spanish teams in the second leg. I am rooting for the Spanish teams (for the outsiders Wink

Only one more day we will wait for a very exciting and interesting match, maybe both games can be said to be a draw, because both are at the top of the standings, but Manchester city still has a busy schedule, because they are still competing with liferpol for the title EPL, while Real Madrid has been confirmed to win the La Liga title this season, so I will bet on Real Madrid's victory, tomorrow night, because I have seen that de Bruyne's condition is not yet so good, we'll see tomorrow night, but I'm sure it's real Madrid can definitely beat Manchester city.

both teams reached the semi-finals with no ease. Madrid had to struggle a bit against Chelsea and Man City also had to fight with their full strength to beat Atletico Madrid.
In the first leg, many analysts also predict victory from Man City. moreover, they will play at home. The result of the first leg will greatly affect how the prediction for the second leg will be.
both teams were very productive, but what was unfortunate was that Madrid's game was sometimes inconsistent. Both teams I'm sure are thinking of a way to kill off the opposing striker. both teams have very prolific strikers. especially Benzema who I think will be a concern in this match.

This match is titled the domestic league leaders heading to the Champions League final.
Manchester City, which is the leader of the Premier League standings against the leaders of La Liga (Real Madrid). Head-to-head Manchester City and Real Madrid are very balanced, Both teams have won twice, drawn two and lost two.
What's interested in this match is that both teams eliminated rivals from opposing clubs in the quarter-finals, Man City managed to get rid of Atletico Madrid while Real Madrid got rid of Chelsea. Man City must not be careless in this match, let alone let Benzema move freely on the field. Because this season Benzema has a pretty good goal-scoring instinct, If Man City don't want the same fate as Chelsea, Guardiola must turn off the movement of Benzema.

There is only one day left to watch a great match between Manchester City and Real Madrid in the semi finals. I believe that Real Madrid will make big difficulties for Manchester City in this match. I don't mean that they would have control of the match of course. I think the opposite for it as we all know how dominant Manchester City are in their home matches. But Real Madrid might do a great job about wearing them out and looking for goal opportunities. If Benzema is in-form in this match, then they would be likely to score at least one goal too.

See Google's statistics, Mancity 65% and Real Madrid 15%, indicating that Mancity is more superior.

But this is all focused on the hosts who should be able to influence the result, of course this will be very productive in terms of the game and all striker players are ambitious to play better but remember Real Madrid also have the same thing we have to admit that so I think the prediction can be just shot but the results will be different.
I'm sure Real Madrid will play a counter-attack the target is Benzema.

Semi-finals first leg is here. Man City to confront Real Madrid in the semi-finals stage following the 21/22 UEFA Champions League. City regarded English giant club while Madrid regarded Spanish top club, so predict the outcome quite difficult. But, I'll pick Man City following the first leg clash. If Madrid keep up the good work things would not be easy for Man City.

Real Madrid slightly benefited from their adequate rest after competing in the domestic arena, this was different from Manchester city where they only had 2 days of rest before the first match against Real Madrid, but it is undeniable that Manchester city has a very good squad depth, of course. this doesn't have much effect on the team's condition ahead of the semifinals against real Madrid at the Etihad stadium, Manchester city also has a form of advantage because they will act as hosts first, especially since Manchester city is currently on fire even though they are under a bit of pressure in the primary league. England but I firmly believe that Manchester city can overcome Real Madrid

Can't wait for the semi-final match in the Champions League, both the Manchester City vs Real Madrid match, and the Liverpool vs Villareal match. I want to see how far Villarreal can put up a tight fight for Liverpool. Even though they are not seeded but I still want to see what this representative from Spain will do. But in the end I would still bet on Liverpool to be in the final.

Exactly, Liverpool has demonstrated a good record that show that they will definitely get to final in this tournament. Villarreal cannot stop Liverpool not to enter Final because Liverpool team, has what it takes to defeat Villarreal 3-0 to prove to their fans that this UEFA champion league title belong to them in this season. Real Madrid has proven to their fans that they are more stronger than any other teams, for the victory they got from Chelsea for semi final. Manchester city will use all their power and tactics to defeat Real Madrid to stand for final.

In the games against Bayern, Villareal showed that they have a very good defense and very dangerous counterattacks.
I think Liverpool will have two very difficult games with them.
On the other hand, in the matches with PSG and Chelsea, Real was in a losing situation every time, but each time they somehow got away with it and won and showed how dangerous they are and that they are ready to fight to the end.
Manchester City will probably have a small advantage, but they must not relax for a moment because otherwise Real will punish it.

If Villarreal can put up another big performance like the one they had against Bayern Munich in both games against Liverpool then they can make it finally to the finals.
Real Madrid lost to both PSG in the first leg and to Chelsea in the second leg, I see another big loss against city and City will use that against them.
They have also seen they conceded two goals against Osasuna as a result of bad defending.

I sont know but many seem to have the feeling that Manchester City is a much better team than the great white sharks and I really don't wish to accept that. We've seen this great whites do the unexpected when they played PSG, they kicked out Chelsea and somehow, they could kick out Manchester City too but, its going to be a very difficult one however.

I agree with you
a week of rest is important and strategic and fundamental
honestly i think the same things you do
tiredness today is a determining factor as players play a lot of games (at high levels) and are very stressed

yes of course fitness is very influential on performance. but these two are great teams that will play in the semi-finals of the Champions League of course they will put all their efforts into pursuing being a champion which is only a little bit left.
the quality of the two teams is not much different, although the match will be played at home to Man City, I think Real Madrid still has a chance to win this first leg match.

The Real Madrid vs Manchester City match will be interesting, they will definitely display a determined game, both Real Madrid and Manchester City. Because when they miss just one goal it will put them in danger. It is difficult to predict the final result of these two teams, predicting who will win and who will lose is a very difficult thing.

Real madrid and Manchester City are strong team with talented players, if Manchester city is not able to win real Madrid it will be a problem to them , I wish Manchester city to win the game for this level they have gone so far I wouldn't not want any little mistakes to make them not to go further.

Will Manchester United ever make it up to the champion leagues as the no longer on the top 5 on the EPL table, the lose to asernal today in the premier league have shown the club weakness.

I doubt if Manchester United can make it up to champions league with their recent performance. They lost to arsenal in yesterday day game and it made them to go down low. The way Manchester United are playing it looks very difficult to predict if Manchester United can come back strong any moment from now.

Manchester United right now have lost all hope to secure a champions league spot, they didn’t take advantage of the opportunity to rank up to top 4. After the loss against Arsenal, it was obvious Manchester United won’t secure a spot for the champions league next season. They now have a new manager we’ll manage them from next season, we await what he got to see if the team will come back stronger next season.

This is football ops anything can happen even Manchester City have long history of not winning the champion league before there are much better chances of them winning the time as the club have maintained the first sport on the premiere league and still heading the group in championship.
