Real Madrid vs Man City LIVE

Manchester City make the trip to Real Madrid this evening looking to place one foot in the quarter-finals of the Champions League. Pep Guardiola’s side face a team they have already beaten in this year’s competition, having conquered Los Blancos earlier in the campaign. They did so at this very stadium, thanks to Nico O’Reilly and Erling Haaland’s goals in the first half.

Now, there is a new man in the Madrid dugout, with Alvaro Arbeloa taking over from Xabi Alonso. He locks horns with Guardiola for the first time in his nascent managerial career, with the City boss eyeing a fourth European crown of his career after two with Barcelona and one with City.

Real are without a number of key players, namely Kylian Mbappe and Jude Bellingham, as they look to overcome a tricky task in what is proving to be a difficult season. They sit behind Barcelona in the La Liga title race and needed a play-off win over Benfica to reach the first knockout stage. Stay up to date with all the latest with our live blog below.
