Reigning UEFA Champions League holders Manchester City welcome 14-time winners Real Madrid in what promises to be a mouth-watering second leg tie at the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday. (More Football News)
The first leg in Madrid last week was a cracker of a contest, with both sides going toe-to-toe in an exhilarating slugfest at the Santiago Bernabeu. City scored three goals in the first leg but lacked their usual dominance in the tie as Real made a contest of it, as the La Liga side fought their way back.
Pep Guardiola, who has in the past fought against Real in the El Clasico, said that his team did not fear the them. He said, “No I don’t fear them (Real Madrid). But I respect them a lot. I have faced them many times. I’m not going to talk great things about them, and give you my opinion. I respect Real Madrid. And if I say I’m scared of them, I would be false.”

However, the Spanish coach knows that Real can be dangerous side on the counter especially with the involvement of Brazilian, Vinicius Junior. Moreover, they have Jude Bellingham too, to frustrate the Premier League table-toppers.
