No player is supposed to miss this game. Ederson was in the starting XI if the Citizens last weekend, for the first time in a month. This makes the defensive line stronger. Haaland has scored 2 goals in the 3 games played in April. Besides him, there are players who can score. Even Gvardiol has scored 2 goals in 2 games. There are also De Bruyne, Silva, Grealish, Foden, Doku, Álvarez. The side has scored 16 goals in the 4 games, played in April.
The defensive line of Real Madrid could hardly manage to play against the Citizens’ attacking players last week. Tchouaméni will miss this game, and whoever will play instead is unlikely to fit this kind of a top game. Before beating Mallorca (1:0), Real Madrid missed 3 goals in their 5 away games. The defensive line isn’t top, currently.
Manchester City are the leaders of the Premier League again. This and the fact that this is their home game are the main advantages of the Citizens.
Manchester City and Real Madrid have had 6 head-to-head games in the Champions League knockout stage in the last 4 years. The Citizens have scored at least 2 goals in their home matches on each occasion (2:1, 4:3, 4:0). The favourites will perform well in the attacking line again.
