Team news
John Stones was absent from the weekend win over Luton for Manchester City, though Pep Guardiola suggested that the defender’s omission was purely precautionary, though Kyle Walker may be used from the bench after his own injury problem. Phil Foden was on the bench for that league fixture after suffering a dead leg in last week’s first leg, with the return of Ederson further leaving Guardiola in a healthy place squad-wise.
Aurelien Tchouameni is suspended for Real Madrid, with Nacho Fernandez in line to return and partner Antonio Rudiger in central defence. Rodrygo should be fit to feature after a knock.
Predicted line-ups
Manchester City XI: Ederson; Walker, Stones, Dias, Gvardiol; Rodri; Foden, Kovacic, De Bruyne, Grealish; Haaland
Real Madrid XI: Lunin; Carvajal, Nacho, Rudiger, Mendy; Camavinga, Kroos; Valverde, Bellingham, Rodrygo; Vinicius Jr.
