1. Real Madrid vs Manchester City Match Analysis

As the League phase moves into its latter stages at Match-day six out of eight, both of these sides are well placed to progress directly from a top eight finish. Real sit in 5th place following their 4-3 victory at Olympiakos where Kylian Mbappe scored all four of their goals. City are also still looking good despite their surprise defeat to Bayer Leverkusen on Match-day five. Real still have a home fixture with Monaco and a trip to Benfica to look forward to; whilst City close their campaign by visiting struggling Bodø/Glimt and then entertaining Galatasaray. Pep Guardiola discussed the loss to his much-changed starting 11 after the Leverkusen game, he stated:

We have weapons on the bench, but honestly it didn’t work, and we have to accept it. - Pep Guardiola, Man CIty Media

As mentioned above the Real Madrid vs Manchester City betting odds favour the Spaniards with bookmakers taking into account their home advantage when this game is played at the Bernabéu Stadium on 10 December. Nevertheless, defeat for Real would have them looking a little anxiously over their shoulder at the chasing group, meaning any Madrid vs City prediction might look to take that fact into account. Domestically Real are again battling it out with rivals Barcelona for top spot in La Liga, and whilst the Manchester outfit are up there in a top three position, they are already playing catch-up after Arsenal's excellent start to the season.

Any Real Madrid vs Manchester City team analysis will depend on how some of the Spanish side's injured players respond in the lead up to the game, with the influential Antonio Rüdiger, Daniel Carvajal, Aurélien Tchouaméni and Éder Militão all battling to be fit for the clash. City have a much healthier looking squad with only long-term casualty Mateo Kovacic definitely out at this point. The teams have met on 14 previous occasions in the competition, with Real winning 6 - including a dramatic penalty shoot out at the quarter-final stage three seasons ago - City triumphing 4 times, with the other 4 ending in a draw. The fact arguably the two best goalkeepers in the world are playing in this match could make it worth checking out our clean sheet betting tips 101 guide if you fancy a punt on a shutout.

2. Real Madrid vs Man City Betting Odds & Markets

The Real Madrid vs Man City betting odds show Real installed as favourites for the contest at 5/4 (2.25) and City at 19/10 (2.90) with bet365. However, it's in the alternative markets and specials where punters are likely to discover any true value.

Naturally, the two scoring machines of each side, Kylian Mbappe - priced at 7/2 (4.50) for first goalscorer and Erling Haaland priced at 15/4 (4.75) - will attract a lot of interest, but if bettors look towards players like: Jude Bellingham – 8/1 (9.00) for Real, and maybe Phil Foden – 10/1(11.00) for City in the first goalscorer betting, there could be some decent cash to be won. More so if they're combined with a specific correct score in Real Madrid vs Manchester City betting predictions.
