Both these teams are in surprisingly similar positions, the most noteworthy one being that both are second in their respective leagues. While it is almost confirmed at this point that Man City will lose the PL to Liverpool, the wound of being second is rather fresh for Real Madrid. The team lost it’s position to Barcelona as a result of the most recent gameweek. Manchester City has never won a UCL despite being one of the more fearsome clubs in world football.
Real Madrid on the other hand, is the team with the most UCL trophies and won 4 in the last decade.
