He Real Madrid and the Manchester City They will face each other at the Santiago Bernabéu, in the first leg of the Champions League semifinals. The whites, reigning champions, they want to defend the title against one of the top candidates to win the European Cupbut that still does not house it in its showcases.
This duel, which is repeated the same as last year, will mean the personal revenge of Pep Guardiola, who saw how the previous season he was left out of the final due to the comeback on the edge of Madrid at the Bernabéu thanks to goals from Rodrygo. The whites won the fourteenth Champions League and City went home empty for another year.
Manchester City reaches the semifinals after easily beating Bayern Munich in the quarterfinals. Unlike last season, this year they have Erling Haaland, who has already met expectations in the Premier League by becoming the player with the most goals in the same edition. That might get them the title ahead of Arsenal.
Happy after winning the Copa del Rey
The whites, for their part, are in a sweet spot after winning the Copa del Rey at La Cartuja against Osasuna (2-1). Now they dream of rounding off the season with the Champions League, although for this they will have to eliminate City again. The winner of the tie will face the winner of Inter-Milan.
These are the probable lineups of the party:
Real Madrid: Courtois; Carvajal, Militao, Alaba, Camavinga; Valverde, Kroos, Modric; Rodrygo, Benzema and Vinicius.
Manchester City: Ederson; Akanji, Stones, Rubén Dias, Aké; Rodri, De Bruyne, Gundogan; Silva, Grealish and Haaland.
