MANCHESTER CITY have to overcome a 3-2 deficit at Real Madrid on Wednesday if they want to progress in the Champions League. Pep Guardiola's men conceded two sloppy goals late at the Etihad last week meaning their European ambitions rely on a big result at the Spanish giants. So SunSport have enlisted the help of their betting experts to preview the European showdown and select the best bets, tips and exclusive sign-up bonuses from our leading betting partners.

On the pitch, you just don't know what side is going to turn up at the minute.

Pep Guardiola's men looked set to take a lead to Spain when heading into the final five minutes or so in front. To go on to lose the game is quite ridiculous but probably in tone with what City have produced in the past couple of months. They were really good on Saturday, for all that Newcastle just didn't turn up at the Etihad again, so need to replicate that and more to progress. Their last visit to the Bernabeu was enthralling. A 3-3 draw in the quarter finals last year where they led, trailed, led again and were pegged back late on.

Madrid have conceded in five of their last six home games, so City more than likely will get themselves on the scoresheet. It's the defensive side that will worry supporters.

It looks like Antonio Rudiger is fit to return for the second leg having missed out in Manchester last week.

His battles with Erling Haaland were crucial last year and he's going to fancy getting the better of the Norwegian here. Haaland has been given it back to his opponents more and more in this recent run and that's a tussle that could quite easily spill over in what's sure to be a passionate contest. These sides have shared 17 goals in the last four fixtures between them in the Champions League. Given City's defensive concerns, their best form of defence is likely attack. And this attack will cause huge problems to Madrid.

Likely to be another high-scoring affair with tie to be decided on the night. *William Hill. 18+. Play Safe. New players only, using promo code T60. Valid from 13/04/2022. Online play.
