Leeds United's clash against Manchester City set to be rescheduled ahead of Real Madrid game

Leeds United's Premier League clash with Manchester City next month is expected to be rescheduled after Pep Guardiola's side reached the Champions League semi-finals.

The Citizens drew 1-1 with Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena, meaning they won 4-1 on aggregate thanks to their 3-0 win at the Etihad Stadium last week.

Star striker Erling Haaland found the back of the net for the 48th time this season for City to give them the lead in the 57th minute but that was after he'd stepped up and missed a penalty in the first half.

Joshua Kimmich did convert from the spot late on for Bayern, but it was far too late for them to make a serious attempt at a comeback.

The result now means that the Whites will probably now have to reschedule their match, which is due to take place at the Etihad on Sunday, May 7 with a 2pm kick-off time.

City's semi-final tie first leg against Real Madrid is set to take place at the Santiago Bernabau on Tuesday, May 9 with the club having already warned fans of the possibility when tickets for the match did not go on sale last week.

On the club's website, they wrote: "The exact fixture date and ticket sale information will not be confirmed until shortly after Wednesday 19th April, following the second leg of Manchester City’s quarter-final UEFA Champions League tie with Bayern Munich."
