Match with Real Madrid Manchester City it is without a doubt the biggest tie of the Champions League quarter-finals. Both teams are considered to be among the favorites to win the competition, and however the forwards have certainly fancied their chances of doing so.
At this stage, Los Blancos' injury situation in that match is the healthiest it has been for a while. Only Thibaut Courtois and David Alaba are expected to be unavailable, with club officials hoping to have Eder Militao available to play a part as he nears the end of his recovery from an ACL tear last August .
Unfortunately for Man City, their situation looks a little more worrying. Manager Pep Guardiola confirmed on Friday that Kyle Walker and John Stones have joined goalkeeper Ederson on his injury list, according to AS Diary.
“Ederson will improve a lot, Akanji will be 100% fit to play against Arsenal. Walker and Stones are left out. Walker's injury is more serious than Stones. They will both be out, I don't know how many games they will miss.”
Walker and Stones took shots during the international break, and Real Madrid would be significantly increased if no one played at the Santiago Bernabeu. The first stop in the Spanish capital is only 11 days.
