Game Prediction
The phrase “early final” has long been considered a cliché. Still, what else can one call a situation when the winner of this couple won the Champions League in two previous cycles? The same was in 2022 – Real Madrid won the next trophy, and the title finally went to Manchester City in June. There is the only difference – the giants met in the semi-finals, now it is they who open the 1/8 round. Who will succeed at Santiago Bernabéu? The analytical department of the website has prepared a prediction for this match on April 9, 2024.
Real Madrid is close to repeat the achievement of the British rival in the previous season
“Los Blancos”, after the unsuccessful previous season, were able to achieve noticeable progress, although they actually strengthened the squad only with Bellingham, and Joselu replaced Benzema, who had left for incredible money. It is noteworthy that the club also took Kepa, but he disappointed; fortunately, Lunin did his best. It was his saves, among other things, that ensured the overcoming of the unexpectedly lively and cheerful RB Leipzig into the 1/8 finals. Now the team can fully concentrate on further advancement in the Champions League, because a handicap has finally been created in front of all pursuers, led by Barcelona, in the Primera.
Manchester City is eager to stay on top
“The Citizens” finally took the desired European trophy in 2023. Thus, they officially became the best team in Europe, which was later confirmed by the UEFA Super Cup, and they added a triumph at the Club World Cup. Moreover, it was already quite common for the star company, strengthened by Haaland, to dominate at the inner arena. This “treble”, which is what Pep is setting up his wards for, can only be repeated. And there are pretty good chances. It’s impossible to break away from Arsenal and especially Liverpool in the Premier League. As for the cup tournament, the favourite is already in the semi-finals. Speaking about the Champions League, the club had no problems either in the group or in the 1/8 finals, where it won both matches against Copenhagen with a total 6-2 score.
Previous head-to-head matches
Taking into account the first 4 matches in the Champions League, “Los Blancos” alternated victories and draws. Still, then they won only 1 out of 6 games and 4 more struggles brought defeats. It is remarkable that it turned out that the team finally reached the final of the last but one season and won it.
