MAN CITY

Since taking over at city, Guardiola has had it difficult landing this prestigious trophy. On his last three attempts he was knocked out at this stage making this game an interesting one to watch.

The last time these 2 teams met, city were beaten by their visitors but based on current form, this city team seem to be flying and are one of the favourites to clinch the title this year.

Guardiola would be hoping his city stars headed by the visionary Kevin De bruyne to end the curse of the quarter finals

DORTMUND

Dortmund come into this encounter with a form that is inconsistent. In their last 6 league games, they have managed to win 2 and draw 2.

The lost in their last league game to 4th placed Frankfurt leaves them 5th on the table with 43 points and a difference of 7 points between them while they are 21 points apart with table toppers, Bayern Munich.

This competition remains their only hope of winning a medal. To get to this stage they narrowly beat Sevilla by an aggrgate score of 5-4.

Despite their inconsistent form, the team can boast of a young ambitious and lethal attacker Erling Haaland who has been making the headlines for his qualities as a striker.

He is one player in this encounter that cant be toyed with. This game provides him an opportunity to show city first hand why he is the most in demand player right now and why big clubs are fighting to land him.

He currently holds the record for the fastest player to score 20 goals In the Champions league. City will therefore have a real test of what they are breaking the bank to buy in this encounter.
