Champions League: Real Madrid VS Man City

This is the big question as City face Spanish giants Real Madrid in Wednesday’s Champions League return match semi-final match in Spain.

With a place in next year’s Champions League in doubt and the Premier League already won, this remains City’s only hope for silverware but it does not look easy for them.

The first leg match played at Etihad Stadium last week ended in a barren draw giving the Spanish giants an advantage in Wednesday’s return fixture as they will be at home.

City goes into this match on the back of a 4-2 loss to Southampton in the Premier League.

The English side has already overdone themselves by making it to the last four of the Champions League. This is the first time for them to reach this level and one hopes it has given them the hunger to want to progress further.

City will welcome back Yaya Toure who has missed the last two matches with an injury and the Ivorian is expected to provide more options upfront for the English side.

Madrid will have Christiano Ronaldo back in the squad and this gives them plenty of confidence going into this match.

Ronaldo remains the highest scorer in the Champions League this season with 16 goals to his name.

He pulled Madrid from the jaws of defeat in the quarter final by scoring a hat-trick against Wolfsburg and there is no reason he cannot repeat the same on Wednesday night.
