Key Players To Watch

Jude Bellingham – Real Madrid

A key man for club and country Jude Bellingham is already a bona fide world-class talent at 20. His potential as a footballer and what he could achieve is scary.

Bellingham’s performances for Real Madrid this season have been sensational; in 31 matches he has recorded 20 goals along with 9 assists. That includes 4 Goals and 4 Assists from 6 Games in the Champions League.

Phil Foden – Man City

The Manchester maestro (23) is tremendously versatile playing across all four positions in the front four this season Making him a key cog in the Guardiola side. Foden’s hat trick against Aston Villa took his total for the season to a phenomenal 21 goals and 10 assists from 44 games.

Real Madrid v Man City Prediction & Best Bet

Prediction: Real Madrid 2-1 Man City

There is a strong sense of deja vu with this fixture and Madrid will be cognisant that they arguably fluffed their lines last season against City.

City are trying to land that elusive treble for the second successive season, and with Madrid’s Champions League pedigree,  they may be their toughest opponent on that journey.

This could be a rip-roarer of a game and I think there will be plenty of goals, but I think Madrid may edge it.

Best Bet: Real Madrid Win + Under 3.5 Goals @ 3/1
