PREDICTION
It wouldn't come as a surprise if the winner of this quarter-final matchup ultimately went on to win the Champions League this season. Hence, there's a fair argument to suggest that these two teams might nullify each other's efforts, leading to a potentially low-scoring affair. Nevertheless, Madrid will likely leverage their home advantage to assert dominance, and given that City have struggled with defensive injuries and general fragility at the back, yet boast considerable attacking prowess, it seems sensible to bet on both teams finding the net.
