Probable lineups Real Madrid – Manchester City

Manchester City/@mancity

The highly anticipated UEFA Champions League round of 16 clash sees Real Madrid square off against Manchester City this Wednesday, March 11, at 8 PM GMT.

This is a classic matchup that repeats for the fifth consecutive season in the knockout stages. The Merengues have advanced three times, while the Citizens have done so just once, in 2023.

It’s worth noting that the Spaniards lost at home to their English counterparts during the group stage (1-2).

Having scored 13 goals in the Champions League this season, Kylian Mbappé will be sidelined due to injury. Eder Militao, Jude Bellingham, David Alaba, Dani Ceballos, Rodrygo, and Carreras are also ruled out. On the other hand, Álvaro Arbeloa can count on the return of Eduardo Camavinga.

Pep Guardiola, meanwhile, will have to do without Gvardiol, Kovacic, and Lewis. Although initially doubtful, Savinho is ultimately available for this trip to Spain.

Probable lineups

Manchester City: Donnarumma - Matheus Nunes, Ruben Dias, Guehi, Ait-Nouri - B.Silva, Rodri, O'Reilly - Cherki, Haaland.
