LiontipsReal Madrid vs Manchester City: betting tip (cf 3.80) and bets on the Champions League match
Command Analysis
Current form
Real Madrid started the season more than confidently, won 13 of the first 14 official matches, and took the lead in the Primera. However, the wards of Xabi Alonso could not keep such a pace at a distance. In early November, there was an away defeat in the Champions League against Liverpool with a minimum score of 0:1, and then an obvious decline followed. In the last seven matches, taking into account all the tournaments, we have managed to win only two victories and there have already been discussions in the press about the possible retirement of Alonso, whom everyone admired until recently.
In the Example, Real Madrid had only one win in the previous five rounds, with three draws and one loss. Barcelona immediately took advantage of such gifts from a principled opponent, topped the table, breaking away from the cream by four points. In the last round, Galaktikos hosted Celta at home and suffered a sensational defeat with a score of 0:2. In the first half, Madrid had a huge advantage, but they did not use their chances, for which the opponent punished them in the second 45 minutes. The match was remembered for three home runs at once, the players obviously couldn't handle their emotions: Fran Garcia managed to get two yellow cards in just a minute in the middle of the second half, and in the end Alvaro Carreras and Endrik, who was on the bench, received red cards.
In the Champions League, cream is still more confident: 12 points scored in five rounds and an intermediate fifth place. The only misfire happened on the road with Liverpool - a 0-1 defeat. On the eve of the home game with Manchester City, it is alarming that Kylian Mbappe may not play today. The Frenchman had missed a training session the day before due to muscle discomfort.

Militao, Carvajal, Alaba, Alexander-Arnold, Heisen, Mendy and Kamawinga are injured and will not be able to help their team. Mbappe's entry into the field is questionable.

Current form
Manchester City has noticeably updated its squad in the summer, and there is clearly a generational change going on. Against this background, it is difficult to expect even and stable results from Josep Guardiola's team, but the main thing is that there is no complete failure, which happened last season. In the Premier League, the townspeople scored a series of three wins, while Arsenal began to falter and after 15 rounds Manchester City got within two points of the Gunners.
In the last round in the Premier League, the townspeople dealt with Sunderland (3-0) without any problems on their own field, which is the main opening of the season. Before that, there were controversial winning matches with Leeds (3:2) and Fulham (5:4), where Manchester City missed a solid advantage and allowed the opponents to return to the game. In general, if the attack has been virtually uninterrupted since the beginning of the season and has been doing its job well, then there are still many problems in defense, especially in the endings: 16 goals conceded is the worst indicator among the representatives of the top 5 in the Premier League.
In the Champions League, Manchester City had an unexpected 0-2 home defeat against Bayer Leverkusen in the previous round. Then Guardiola went on a serious rotation, released far from the main squad, for which he paid. With 10 points scored, the townspeople are in ninth place at the start of the sixth round, and it is important for them to win today in order to have a good chance of finishing in the top 8.

1.65Tip and bets
In the last two Champions League draws, Madrid knocked Manchester City out of the tournament in the playoffs. There is no doubt that the guests today are aiming to get even for those failures, they will go forward with great strength and rely on their attack. The townspeople haven't had any problems attacking recently, as evidenced by 11 goals in the previous three matches. At the same time, Guardiola cannot solve the problems in defense in any way, the endings of games, when it is not possible to maintain the advantage gained, are a weak point.
Real Madrid is clearly far from peak form right now, there are a lot of injured players, as the last match against Celta showed with three disposals, discipline also began to limp. At the same time, the cream houses, even if Kylian Mbappe does not play, cannot afford to play carelessly, there are enough qualified performers in the attack to take advantage of the opponent's mistakes, which will definitely be. There is a high probability that the upcoming battle of the European giants will be effective.
Our betting tip is a total of more than three goals for a coefficient of 1.75
Betting on the outcome
When choosing a bet based on a match, it is logical to pay attention to two key points. Firstly, Manchester City has been more confident in recent meetings, is on a three-game winning streak, and the attack is working well. Secondly, Madrid's Kylian Mbappe's appearance on the field is questionable, which could be a serious problem in the event of a shootout, which we are counting on in the betting tip today. In such circumstances, it is worth considering the option of betting on the victory of the guests.
The second bet is a victory for Manchester City with a coefficient of 2.43
Combined bid
The opponents have a powerful attacking potential, but at the moment they have a lot of problems in defense and it is unlikely that anyone will be able to win back to zero. Moreover, in the previous four face-to-face matches, there was an exchange of goals scored. In general, according to the latest results, the advantage is on the side of the guests. With such introductory data, it is logical to play a combined bet with a high chance that Manchester City will win and at the same time there will be an exchange of goals scored.
The prediction is that Manchester City will win and both will score with a coefficient of 3.80
