Manchester City vs Real Madrid Analysis
With both sides packed to the brim with sensational talent, this will be an epic encounter with all UCL betting sites locked in.
Manchester City
It has been a good week for Manchester City, with the defending Champions League winners moving to the top of the Premier League too. However, this feels significant against Real Madrid, a side that has outdone them in key moments before and City will have to hold their nerve. This will be nip and tuck throughout and it could go either way in the eyes of many punters and Champions League betting sites.
Team news: City have a couple of defensive injuries, with Kyle Walker and Nathan Ake are not expected to play here.
Manchester City Predicted Lineup:
Ederson, Stones, Dias, Akanji, Gvardiol, Silva, Rodri, De Bruyne, Foden, Grealish & Haaland
Real Madrid
The reputation that Real Madrid have in the Champions League strikes fear into most sides, and they will be out to rattle into Manchester City here. Madrid rode their luck at times last week at home and they know that all of the pressure will be lumped on City, in front of their home fans. With pace to burn on the counter, Madrid know they can hurt the blues, making this a fascinating contest in prospect.
Team news: Thibaut Courtois and David Alaba all expected to miss this one for Real Madrid, with Aurelien Tchouameni suspended.
Real Madrid Predicted Lineup:
Lunin, Carvajal, Rudiger, Nacho, Mendy, Valverde, Camavinga, Bellingham, Kroos, Rodrygo & Vinicius Jr.
Manchester City vs Real Madrid Prediction
Last week’s game in Madrid was an all-time Champions League classic and the goals look set to rain in once again here in Manchester. City are the favourites, having demolished Madrid at home last year but Madrid are seeking revenge and the Champions League gods tend to come down on their side when it matters most.

Real Madrid to win qualify – 12/5 (+240) – Fitzdares
