Pep Guardiola usually names a 4-2-3-1 shape and it will be no different this time around. He will surely demand his warriors to retain the possession by playing high defensive line. With electrifying wingers, they can be dangerous from wide areas.

Key Men

Real Madrid

Eduardo Camavinga can be a key member in the midfield unit as he provides high work-rate. On the attacking front, Rodrygo has a tendency to hurt City.

Nico González is likely to be deployed to control the tempo of the game. If he manages to deliver a good display, his side will be comfortable enough. On the other hand, in-form Omar Marmoush will be motivated to prove himself.
