Man City vs Real Madrid prediction and odds ahead of Champions League decider

With the first Champions League finalist secured, the Etihad Stadium hosts arguably the biggest match in the Champions League calendar as heavyweights Manchester City and Real Madrid meet to decide who will be heading to Istanbul with Inter Milan. Both sides were equally matched in last week's first leg at the Santiago Bernabeau with goals from Vinicius Jr and Kevin De Bruyne

City go into this match as the bookies favourite with Betfred pricing Pep Guardiola's side at 1/2 while Carlo Ancelotti's reigning champions are 5/1 and a draw is 10/3. The hosts have lost only once of their last five meetings with Real Madrid in the Champions League picking up three wins along the way while Los Blancos have failed to win in their last four away trips to Eastlands picking up just two draws.

However, this is an all too familiar situation for Ancelotti who will be hoping to look back on last year's semi-final as motivation for his side to secure their 18th final appearance in the club's history. He will be looking towards the likes of Luka Modric, Toni Kroos, Vinicius Jr and Karim Benzema to do the work needed for Madrid to produce a shock in Manchester.

Kevin De Bruyne to score anytime - 3/1

Man City to win and over 2.5 goals - 11/10
