Real Madrid managed to turn around the odds around against Wolfsburg, guided by Cristiano Ronaldo (3-0). CR7 is now back in contention after missing the last 3 matches of Real including the 0-0 draw in Manchester. In Spain, minimizing the gap to the Primera Liga leaders Barcelona to 1 point has been good news, but Blaugrana remains great favourites for the title. So, European glory still looks more possible than winning the league.
Los Blancos seek the 11th Champions League trophy and Zidane has a lot to offer at this stage. Football is not only tactics but also psychology and the French manager has been in that stage many times before. But he expects his team to ‘suffer from the 1st to the 90th minute’ as he said at the Press Conference surprising everybody probably trying to lower the pressure.
Real Madrid is without Benzema and Casemiro.
Possible lineup
Real Madrid: Navas; Carvajal, Ramos, Pepe, Marcelo; Modrić, Kroos, Isco; Bale, Jesé, Ronaldo.
Out: Benzema (hamstring), Casemiro (hip)
Bet live on Real Madrid v Man City at bet365 > Live In-Play
Manchester City reached UEFA Champions League quarter-finals for the first time, so a semi-final is a new record for them and the final would be a mini miracle.
Pellegrini’s men passed through PSG drawing 2-2 in Paris and winning 1-0 at home. Joe Hart did some fine saves in the first leg to keep the clean sheet for his team, but now it is almost definite that the Citizens will need to score.
In the Premier League they lost 4-2 away to Southampton with 8 changes in the starting XI in comparison with the match against Madrid. The same amount of changes are expected tonight. Everyone in the club believes they can write history by reaching the final and winning the trophy.
Toure is back but Silva is injured and so is Zabaleta.
Possible lineup
Man. City: Hart; Sagna, Otamendi, Kompany, Clichy; Fernando, Fernandinho; Navas, Touré, De Bruyne; Agüero.
Out: Silva (hamstring), Zabaleta (calf)
Doubtful: Touré (muscular problem)
Our bet: Real Madrid should score and Man City could score. We will back Both Teams To Score on this one, keeping the winning bet of the last days unchanged. Small bet also on Aguero to score first at 13/2 (7.50).
