Real Madrid v Manchester City: Gut Feelings

Right here we go once more. Actual Madrid within the Champions League (properly, it’s not going to be within the Vanarama Vans Trophy is it?), which appears to have turn into a staple fixture 12 months in, 12 months out.

Metropolis have been in a position to maintain a stable defence in opposition to Sunderland on Saturday however they could discover Actual’s ahead line barely completely different to the newly promoted Black Cats. The Blues go into the match on the again of three successive victories, scoring 11 targets and conceding 7 within the course of.

Within the Champions League, Metropolis suffered a shock 2-0 dwelling defeat to Bayer Leverkusen within the final spherical of matches, and now sit outdoors the automated qualification spots.

Actual have received simply three of their final eight matches in all competitions and the strain is on supervisor Xabi Alonso to get a end result on Wednesday evening. Defeat to the Blues, or certainly, something over than victory may sign the top of his reign in Spain.

As all the time, our workforce are right here to masterfully predict the longer term and offer you our ideas on Wednesday’s match. Right here’s what we expect this week.

Robust match vs a spiraling workforce. Will they again their supervisor and play as much as stage or spiral even additional? I’m leaning latter, give me a refreshed Haaland, Foden and firm to steal a win in Madrid. 3-2 Metropolis.Actual 2-3 Metropolis

Not bought feeling. Metropolis have gotten good outcomes this final week however the cracks have been there to point out – and naturally, it’s Madrid on the Bernabeu. I can’t again in opposition to the Blues to not get a end result although.

The lads are off to Spain to face Actual Madrid and Pep disciple Xabi Alonso. Los Blancos within the UCL is all the time a premium match-up. Metropolis want to search out extra constant type. I feel they do exactly sufficient to seize some extent.

My prediction is that this match is not going to finish 0-0, and if it does, I hand over. Metropolis’s defence in opposition to Actual who can’t appear to get a win for love nor cash? Yeah everyone knows how that is ending. Time for a foolish prediction.

How we did in opposition to Sunderland

Maintain the again web page, cease the press and drop the useless donkey…Pete picked up additional factors this week!!!! Okay, nonetheless no spot on prediction, that’s about as possible as a United fan from Manchester. However his 2-1 prediction means he bought the proper variety of targets. Will and Thomas each went for 3-1 and Saul might have forgotten to ship.
