Real Madrid vs Manchester city, i believe the match will not end up draw because Manchester city has developed a good record in this tournament than Real Madrid. Manchester city will not too struggle to win Real Madrid because Manchester city know how to beat Real Madrid defenders to achieve goals which they will surely apply the tactics to defeat Real Madrid 3-1 for the favour of Manchester city

Real Madrid vs Manchester city there is still time and it will be very difficult to predict just by comparing 1 or 2 matches. Both are the best choice clubs that can qualify for the semifinals not because of luck. So, there is no potential for a victory that can be absolutely certain, anything can happen on the field. Both Madrid and Manchester City are willing to show their best quality later at the Etihad Stadium. So far playing at home is an advantage for Manchester City, for the rest we'll see how Ancelotti copes with Pep Guardiola's game.

Real Madrid slightly benefited in the first leg against Manchester City, almost 6-day break in the competition schedule is a good time for the Real Madrid squad to rest compared to Manchester City who still have a game against Watford this weekend. Between Manchester City and Real Madrid have match last night and both team success got good result but different with Manchester City have home match against with Watford on April 23 and four days later will against with Real Madrid, except with Madrid after last night match defeated Osasuna just waiting with Manchester City match only.

Actually Real Madrid have enough time to prepare for the game, but Manchester city too will rest some players in their match against Watford because of Champions League, considering Watford as a relegation team. Although it's very risky to rest players against Watford because if they lose, they are going to come down of premier league and the league will be leaded by Liverpool, so it will slightly looks difficult to rest some key players but I am sure they can cope and the match will be interesting.

This could really be the small advantage that could make the different in the end if he match will be very close and intense over the full 90 minutes. The spanish Primera Division is known for letting their clubs skip matches that are schedule for the weekend directly before a quarter- or semi-final of the big european championships. As far as i know the spanish league is the only one that is doing that. I wonder why the english, german and italian league are not doing the same i mean in the end this can really be an advantage. I would even say if one club is doing it the other club should do that too or both clubs are not allowed to do it.

They don't appear to have many records, since their last match was just twice and they each had one victory and one loss, but do you believe Villareal is capable of defeating Liverpool? Liverpool has six Champions League titles and Villatreal has none. They say that experience is the best teacher, and I am rooting for Liverpool because they will have the perfect plans to face their opponents. I am not underestimating Villareal, but they have a low chance of winning the cup.

Of course experience is a good teacher but in football we can't be sure of anything especially the Champions League is something different to their domestic league. Obviously Villareal are the underdogs against Liverpool, but no one should underestimate them after Bayern Munich were knocked out in the quarter-finals this season by this underdog side.

I would have thought Liverpool would have made it to the final easier than Manchester City or Real Madrid, but the same thing didn't happen to me when Bayern Munchen lose against Villarreal in the quarter-finals.

I think all the teams that are in the semifinals right now shouldn't be taken lightly, maybe we said that Liverpool will get an easier match against Villareal, but didn't we also say the same thing when Bayern met Villareal in the quarterfinals ago?
Most of us here say that Bayern will be the first club to be in the semifinals, but in fact Villareal is able to destroy Bayern.
In my opinion even though Villareal may be a little weak in La Liga but I am sure they will be very troublesome for Liverpool in the match and it is not impossible that they will return surprised us as they did in the last quarterfinals.

Many people haven't really been paying attention to Villarreal, they are actually thinking Liverpool will have it easy. Villarreal are very stubborn and not so easy to predict their style of play. Their defense block is mostly intact throughout their game and they are compact when they lose the ball.

after Villarreal made a surprise by beating Bayern of course made Liverpool more alert against Villarreal in the semifinals.
It's true that Villarreal is far behind in quality compared to Liverpool, but after they were able to reach the UCL semifinals, they played more freely and effortlessly. although Liverpool have a great chance to beat them but I think that small percentage makes anything possible.
So I think it will also be a tough game for Liverpool. and one thing that Villarreal excels at is a very solid defense.

Next week, we are going to have the first leg games of the semi finals. Liverpool are going to be the home team against Villarreal. And it is the same for Manchester City against Real Madrid. For the former game, I believe in Liverpool too much to win. But it might be a very comfortable victory at the same time. Maybe they could win by one or two goals. But it would still be a good advantage before the rematch. They need to win in Anfield definitely because their job would be much harder in Spain. And for the latter, I think that Real Madrid have a chance to draw with Manchester City as long as Benzema is in-form. They need to be very productive about scoring.

Since this is the first leg in the semi-finals, I hope Liverpool picks up points sooner so that they can secure themselves for the time being. Villareal is a difficult club to predict however their game will have a lot of surprises on the pitch. Apart from being seeded, Liverpool must of course remain vigilant because Unai Emery will optimize his players so that they are not easily penetrated.

It will be interesting to look forward to meeting Real Madrid and Manchester City in this season's Champions League semifinals. And I say it is difficult to predict who will win this match because both are one of the best teams in the domestic league and Champions League. In the domestic league, Manchester City still leads the standings even though they are still in the shadow of Liverpool who are still chasing with only 1 point, as well as Real Madrid, which is still comfortably at the top of the standings.

But for me it's easy to predict this but first I'll be honest, I'm not a big fan of a football team so maybe I can say I'm a neutral person. But at this moment I personally believe Manchester City have a better chance, that doesn't mean it's guaranteed to win and qualify. I personally just feel Manchester City have better quality in a team, unlike Real Madrid who still need Benzema to improve the quality of the team.

I think the problem is Manchester City having to worry about the English Premier League because they cannot make any mistakes otherwise Liverpool is going to overtake them and win the English Premier League.

So, I think that might be a problem. but I also think that same thing can be said about Liverpool. But I don't think Real Madrid will have any kind of problem like that.

it's true that Manchester City must be able to focus on two matches at once between the domestic league and the Champions League, of course it will be very difficult for them, because in their domestic league they are required to continue to win to be able to win the title this season.
while Real Madrid have been confirmed to be champions in La Liga so they only put their focus on UCL matches.

Manchester City have had better quality this season and also they have been more consistent than Real Madrid but this is a Champions League Semi-final which has a lot of tension and Real Madrid is a team that has a very strong mentality on the UCL stage. I think it will be very difficult for both teams.

Maybe in terms of rest they will be favored but don't forget this first leg we will travel to the Etihad which indeed could be a blow too because City fans can be mentally shaken right now.
Well even though I'm still at Madrid's side now because of his performances but we also shouldn't be too confident because City are not an easy opponent to tame right now.

Maybe some people only see Villarreal in their domestic league so they forget that Villarreal has struggled so far in the Champions League so they can meet a big and strong club this season like Liverpool and have also beaten Bayern Munich in the Champions League
So Liverpool must be wary of Villarreal in the Champions League this season.

I really don't know how Villareal should approach this match because I know that playing ultra-defensive is not going to work and I also know that going hyper-aggressive is also pretty risky against a team like Liverpool who can break really fast with the counterattack. And in the last match against Bayern Munich they have played quite aggressively and this time if they do the same I think Liverpool might expect that. It's quite a hard puzzle to solve at least for me.

Villarreal must change the game scheme like against Bayern Munich, because this strategy has definitely been studied by the Liverpool coach, if Villarreal still imposes this scheme on the match against Liverpool, then I believe they will lose, what Villareal has to watch out for are Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane, because these two players have movements that are quite troublesome for players under any opponent

I never said you should only rely on your luck. You should always work as much as possible to exchange your expected result first. What I am trying to say is the work for a certain thing comes first but there will always be a chance of things working out the way you want to or not. And I know that lock is all of us with the ones who actually tried their hardest.

The luck factor is still there, but for those in Europe this is not a priority, because they believe more in substantive things, such as teamwork, coach strategies and players who have individual skills, so luck is not something they care about. pay attention and so far I have never seen any coach say their win was due to luck

I don't think it will bother Manchester City performance because they're faced a lower rank team e.g. Watford, they will easily won the match and perhaps it will boosting/ motivating them when they faced against Real Madrid. The match will happen in Manchester City's home too, it's enough to take a rest. Manchester City also have many good players which the skills is above average, unlike Real Madrid who only focus on Benzema as the striker.

if you look at the quality of the players, both teams should have no problems. Man City and Madrid have it all. I'm sure the coaches of both teams will rest some of their players to be more ready and focus on the Champions League.
Madrid is not just Benzema, there are still many good players there. despite playing as the host, Man City must be careful with Madrid's pattern of play. Detaining Benzema may be what Man City will do, but remember Madrid's midfield has good names as well. they could be very scary for Man City.

this is an opportunity for real Madrid to rest longer before facing Manchester city in the champions league, moreover they will first play a home match on 28 April this is in contrast to their opponent Manchester city who has to face watford in the English premier league, of course making troops Guardiola will feel a little tired and this can be used by Real Madrid to win in their first leg as well as being a valuable asset if they travel to the Etihad stadium a week later, but real Madrid should not underestimate this Manchester city because they have enough squad depth. qualified when they are played as core players or reserve players, of course, Real Madrid must not be careless like facing the match against Chelsea

To be honest I don't think that advantage will count, pep Guadiola knows how to prepare his team even though he has congested fixture,he is the master of of rotation. He has learnt from past mistake that has course him the champions League in his Manchester City tenure that show in the second leg against Atletico Madrid so let's wait and see, was so happy to know that Kevin Debruyne injury wasn't serious as feared, they will only miss Kyle walker.
