Manchester City face Real Madrid at the Estadio Alfredo Di Stefano in a 20:00 (UK) kick-off, with reward for the victors a spot in the final round of qualification for this season’s competition.
Gareth Taylor’s side come into the tie on the back of a 6-0 win over WFC Tomiris-Turan on Thursday, while our opponents beat Austrian side Sturm Graz by the same score line.
While admitting it was a quick turnaround for his players, the boss insisted that the squad were in good shape ahead of our date with Las Blancas in his pre-match press conference.
And although the players were in high spirits in the Madrid sun, there was a typical focus and intensity on show as we gear up for a huge European encounter.
