It's a semi-final that feels like a final.
Real Madrid face Manchester City on Tuesday for the first leg of their Champions League semi-final. The teams are two of the biggest names in the sport, and both are laser-focused on winning this year's tournament.
Despite Madrid's historical dominance of this competition, they match up very evenly with City. Each side has claimed three wins from their eight total meetings thus far, with the other two matches resulting in draws.
The Sky Blues know they'll have to take the same mentality at the Estadio Bernabeu on Tuesday as they've had for most of this calendar year when they chased down and surpassed Arsenal in the Premier League title race.
"Quite similar. The mindset of the team is there," City boss Pep Guardiola said.
"Already two months ago, three months ago we have to win, win and win. And they did it again. 10 in a row at this time is nice. That helps us be in the position we are."
