Real Madrid Manchester City betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

These Champions League round of 16 matches a team with enormous technical-tactical competence and for this reason there is no clear favorite. Even so, and for playing at home, we hope that the meringues enter the field with an offensive strategy, with a middle block, putting aside a possible surprise on the part of Manchester City. On the other hand, Pep Guardiola's pupils are very accustomed to this type of encounter and, most likely, they will have several chances to taste the foot. That said, we believe in a very disputed game and with several moves of danger, making risking in favor of goals in both goals is a good option.
