Aguero to relish reunion with familiar foes

Man City 3.00 v Real Madrid 2.54; The Draw 3.60
Tuesday, 19:45
Match Odds
Real Madrid have won more of their last dozen games than any other club still in the Champions League, getting the job done on 11 occasions, although it can't be ignored that their sole screw-up in that sequence came in the away first leg of their quarter-final against Wolfsburg.
To Score
Sergio Aguero is once more proving that he is a man for a run-in by firing five times in his latest three appearances. Whereas his fondness for springtime has been somewhat wasted this year and last in the Premier League as Man City compete for consolation prizes, this Champions League challenge presents him with an opportunity to maximise his gift like it's the final day of 2011/12 all over again.
Recommended Bet:
Back Aguero to score @ 2.40

"He shook my hand and said to me: ‘You little bugger’ – or something like that. I didn’t shout ‘nuts’ when I did it. I used to do that when I was young and get told off for it." As Alli spoke at the Allianz after Tuesday’s 2-0 Audi Cup victory, some of Real’s galácticos filed past. This time last year the midfielder was preparing for MK Dons’ League One season opener against Gillingham. His previous competitive game was for MK against Yeovil in May. Alli says “unreal” and “surreal” on a number of occasions and it is little wonder. This is a young player of conviction. If the nutmeg on one of...
