IT was pure box office stuff at the Etihad Stadium between Man City and Real Madrid last week and punters will be hoping for more of the same tonight when the teams meet again.
City will be disappointed to be going to the Bernabeu with just a one goal advantage after leading by two on three occasions before it ended 4-3. As for Madrid they look as if they never know when they're beaten and of course with Karim Benzema in their ranks they can score goals in a heartbeat.
The bookies reckon it's still advantage Manchester City, rating them short 2/9 favourites to join Liverpool in the final compared to 31/10 (SBK) for Real. And it's a surprise to see Carlo Ancelotti's men as big as 21/10 to win on the night.
Let's not forget they've just been crowned La Liga champions once more and have lifted this famous old trophy more times than any other club. They've also turned around two first leg deficits in this season's competition already after losing to PSG and Chelsea so perhaps deserve a bit more respect, especially at home.
That's not to say Man City aren't capable of winning in Spain tonight but for all their brilliance going forward last week they managed just one more shot on target than their opponents. Of course for Pep Guardiola this is the prize that has eluded him since his arrival in Manchester and a draw does City so they're not worth backing at just over evens to win.
In the Draw No Bet market Madrid are 5/4 and that could be a good way to get them onside if you fancy them to push City this evening.
In the goals markets the bookies are rightly running scared and have Over 2.5 Goals at just 1/2. One more goal is 6/5 whilst a repeat of last week where Over 6.5 landed will tempt a few at 12/1. BTTS is 4/9 which isn't that bad a price, following last week's 4-3 thriller.
Man of the moment, Benzema, is 11/10 to find the net again and if Madrid are to progress he's the man most likely to get on the scoresheet.

Aribo @ 9/1
Lundstram @ 11/1
Kamara @ 14/1
Sakala @ 14/1
Tavernier to score and be booked @ 50/1
Considering Tav hits the penalties, I think 50/1 is a great bet.

Real Madrid v Man City
I predicted goals the last time these two sides met, with value in the Real Madrid goals. Not quite the 14/1 tonight but I’ll still be jumping on Real Madrid over 1.5TG at over evens and over 2.5TG’s at 4/1.
Money to be made in the big game. Bet 365 are brave offering out free £5 bets. I’ll be jumping on a bet builder with money to be made.
The only thing lacking in the first game was yellows, still both sides finished on one a piece and I’d expect cards this time round. Both managers will be reminding their players of the ‘taking one for the team’ kind of tackles which breaks up an attacking chance that always results in a yellow. I’ll be sinking my teeth into a couple of speculative BetBuilders that are player specific for yellows, shots and goalscorers when the teams are announced but here is one for starters.
Over 1.5 throw ins first ten mins
Real Madrid over 1.5TG
Man City over 1.5TG
Both teams 2+ yellows
Over 2.5 Offsides in the game
7/1, Bet365
On this with you mate but added under 9.5 free kicks in first half
SkyBet, 2/1 for De Bruyne and Benzema to have a SOT each.
Real Madrid v Man City
Toni Kroos to be booked 5/2
Has been booked by tonight’s referee on two occasions in recent years in Champions League games so having a small bet on a similar outcome tonight
🙂
LOST….not enough play down his side of the pitch to get involved and got subbed off in the second half
Looking for some help if possible?? I placed a 9fold accummulator bet last night with odds of 87/1 with bet365. I partially cashed out 1.05 of my £5 stake for £50.88 whilst the last leg (liverpool game) was still in play, leaving 3.95 to run on the rest of the bet. The last leg bet came in and i assummed that the remaining £3.95 would have been settled with a further pay out of circa £350, however bet365 are refusing to pay out as they state that i had settled all the previously settled bets, and the remaining stake was only on the bet still in play. I have done partial cash out before and never had this issue before. I have read their t+c’s and read that the remaining stake should be placed against the bet. Any help would be much appreciated!
What was the total cash out at the time , £250? out of a possible £550. Doesn’t seem right as you should have your £3.95 still running.
Man City to lead at half time 13/8.Going to cover them leading 1-0 (7/2) 2-0 10/1 and 2-1 14/1 with sky
Every time I watch Real in the Champions League at the Bernebeu they lose the first goal and are behind at half time,Chelsea and PSG this season,Juventus and Ajax previously.Schalke aswell I think. there was another
Something else to watch out for.The card count has rocketed at the end of the match when a Spanish team has been heading out of the competition.Atletico againgst City and Villarreal last night.
Honking yday from me. Already on the Skybet special of KDB & Benzema 1+ SOT each at 2/1. Will wait for team news for my free fivers though
Really like the look of this tonight:
Real Madrid win or draw (double chance)
Benzema anytime to score
Real Madrid over 3 corners
Bet365 Bet Builder 15/4
Coral also offering bet £5 inplay for free inplay bet. I got red card up late on last night at 7/2 but free bet on draw humped
Bet football for a very long time can anyone tell me the difference between a team to keep a clean sheet and to win to win to nil
Keeping a clean sheet means a team not conceding a goal so a 0-0 is a winning bet….Winning to nil means your team must win the game and not concede so a 0-0 would be a losing bet (obviously) as would 2-1 or 3-1 for example
Followed you on the Thai bet DC. A pretty penny was earned. Thanks

Penalty taken in Madrid game 13/8 @ Ladbrokes. GL🍀
****Just a word of warning with the previously mentioned Sky Bet offer of 2/1 for De Bruyne and Benzema 1+ SOT****
Sky Bet have given me a £2 free bet and changed the already placed bet to odds of 1/10. £10 now returning £11. Apparently it wasn’t worded correctly, so I’d strongly advise cashing out on that and re-placing on the newly worded offer. There will be a lot of unhappy folk if they haven’t realised and it lands.
Cheers for that! Put it on at work last night and didn’t even notice the wording! Cashed out and back on the proper bet

Would of rather had City slim,a lot are saying they didn’t want City but Madrid are dangerous and that’s one of the reason i took them tonight.When they scored the goal in the 90th minute you just knew what was coming.
macca ur a legend mate!

In case anyone is also affected, Bet 365 website down – won’t let you login with valid credentials, nor will it allow password resets.
Shocking really, and always happens in big games (where they are potentially going to lose a lot!)
Skybet have decent odds on few City players SOT, Foden, Sterling, Grealish, 7/2, 4/1, 5/1 had Foden at 3/1 am in again on him. They gona hada ava go here
Ah sure they just folded🙄
Courtois to be carded 11/4 Slybet
No joy
Skybet f*cked up their priceboost so money on courtois
What a game, dunno how the hell City bottled that. Madrid had more shots on target in injury time than they did in 90mins 😂 Didn’t have time to post but had Casemiro to be carded @ 6/5 as main bet, daylight robbery I somehow lost 🤯
Just small stakes on this tonight for me in the big game ,
Real madrid vs City
Real Madrid to qualify 11/4 ✅ **WON**
Goodluck………
