Manchester City and Real Madrid will have to decide which of the two will advance to the grand final when they meet for the first leg of the 2021-2022UEFA Champions League semi-finals. Find out here all the information about this game, such as the preview, storylines, predictions and odds. You can watch it in the US on FuboTV (free trial) and Paramount + (free trial). If you are in Canada, it will be broadcast on DAZN.

It will undoubtedly be a very interesting semifinal between two strong teams from the continent, and current leaders of their local leagues. On the one hand, the locals have just won 5-1 in the Premier League against Watford. In the quarterfinals they had a difficult series against Atletico Madrid, playing a great first leg, but being very uncomfortable and far from their level in the second. We will have to see what version of the “Citizens” will be seen in these two games.

On the other side will be Real Madrid, who for La Liga beat Osasuna 3-1 in their last game. Their quarter-final series was one of the most exciting in this UEFA Champions League, beating Chelsea 3-1 in England but losing by the same result in Spain. In extra time, Karim Benzema gave the pass to the semifinals to the “Merengues”. The Madrid team has proven to be very irregular, sometimes having excellent games and other disastrous ones.
