City have a 1-0 lead from the first game thanks to a goal by Kevin De Bruyne, with Atletico playing extremely defensive to keep the tie. Diego Simeone insists that Atletico will play differently in this second game, using to their advantage the world of hosts at Wanda Metropolitano. Pep Guardiola says that Ruben Dias traveled to Madrid, but will not start the game, while Cole Palmer was also in the controversy for travel. Gabriel Jesούςs is being punished after being held in the Champions League for the third time in the first leg, but Kyle Walker is back after serving a three-match ban in Europe. After Real Madrid almost stopped the brilliant return of Chelsea last night, Carlo Ancelotti’s team is waiting in the semifinals if City can move on. However, they know how difficult Atletico will be and Guardiola said he expected a more open game than the one-sided first game.
