I am the same guy who asked about the election too. I was told I could use 'would' even if the election is tomorrow. Like: 'if trump won tomorrow, he would deport all illigal people. I was told that this sentence is correct with would. This sentence was with the the woEd 'tomorrow' too. I asked the question with the ssme kind of context and it's wrong. I am confused.

We're past correctness. We need to think about appropriateness. "will" is more appropriate in the given context because the context tells us that there will really be a match tomorrow, and we really know what title they will have if they win, and all the related facts.

Here the doubt is in the second clause. We can't be sure of something so complicated as a deportation policy, whereas we can be very sure that we have correctly counted all the times Real Madrid has won the title before now.
