After a lopsided bout in Spain, Manchester City and Real Madrid clash at the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday evening in the second leg of their Champions League round of 16 tie.
The European rivals matched up for the fifth season in a row in the Champions League knockout stages, but the first leg lacked the back-and-forth nature of their past clashes. Los Blancos secured a 3–0 win in the first leg thanks to a Federico Valverde hat-trick, leaving Pep Guardiola’s men reeling.
Six days on, City have a chance to make up for their woeful effort, but they need a special performance in front of their home crowd to even get themselves back in the tie, let alone win it. It doesn’t help matters that their opponents are the 15-time European champions, recently emboldened by a return to form.
Here’s how fans can watch the second leg of the Champions League round of 16 between Man City and Real Madrid.

What’s Next for Man City, Real Madrid?

After the second leg at the Etihad, Man City shift their focus to the Carabao Cup final, where they face Arsenal on Sunday, March 22. The competition is likely the club’s best chance at silverware given their falloff in the Premier League and their disadvantage against Real Madrid.
Álvaro Arbeloa’s Real also have a major clash on the horizon: the Madrid derby. Los Blancos host Atlético Madrid in their final match before the March international break on Sunday, March 22, and anything other than a win could put the La Liga title out of reach.
