Our prediction: Man City v Real Madrid
City continue to battle on multiple fronts. The pressure being absorbed and harnessed by Guardiola's side is immense.
However, the Champions League is the one they desperately crave. It's their ticket to the bona-fide European elite club. They will pour everything into seizing an advantage in the first leg.
City are resolute at the back and have all kinds of weapons capable of picking Madrid apart. Kevin De Bruyne and Luka Modric will provide devastating creativity for each side, but the hosts have enough to come out of this one with a slender lead.
Our prediction: Man City 2-1 Real Madrid (7/1 at Bet365)
