Manchester City return to Champions League action on April 17 as they welcome Real Madrid to the Etihad Stadium for the second of two quarter-final ties.
The Sky Blues travelled to the Spanish capital last week and were able to come away with a 3-3 draw following an enthralling encounter, leaving City as 1/3 favourites to make it to the semi-final stage of the competition.
Manchester City injury news & betting tips vs Real Madrid
Here is the latest Manchester City injury news ahead of their clash with Real Madrid.
Kevin De Bruyne was left on the bench for Manchester City’s first-leg meeting with Los Blancos. However, he returned to action during their 5-1 hammering of Luton over the weekend and is expected to play some role on Wednesday.
Pep Guardiola also welcomed back Ederson for Saturday’s win, while defensive duo Kyle Walker and Nathan Ake returned to the bench.
Elsewhere, Bernardo Silva was rested versus Luton but should be back in contention vs Real Madrid, while Phil Foden limped off towards the closing stages of the first leg in Madrid but was on the bench against Luton, raising hope he will be fit to feature.
Foden found the net in the reverse fixture vs the Spanish giants last week and with 22 goals and 10 assists this season, is expected to cause Carlo Ancelotti’s men more problems in midweek. Back Foden to score anytime vs Real Madrid at 5/2.
