THE PREDICTION
This tie is finely poised after a high-quality first leg in Madrid finished a goal apiece, and you’d have to give the slight edge to Man City with home advantage in this return fixture. It was two moments of magic from outside the box that lit up the game at the Bernabeu, but this one could well open up to a greater extent as we reach the closing stages. You can never rule Real Madrid out in this competition and the holders will no doubt be a danger throughout, but with the likes of Kevin De Bruyne and Erling Haaland at the other end, the hosts boast plenty of attacking talent themselves. With this in mind, both teams scoring looks on the cards once again.
