Former Manchester United striker Michael Owen is backing Manchester City to beat Atletico Madrid 2-1 in the second-leg of their Champions League quarter-final at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium on Wednesday evening.
City will travel to the Spanish capital with a 1-0 lead to their name after the first-leg at the Etihad Stadium last Tuesday. Kevin De Bruyne netted the only goal of the game in the second-half to put Pep Guardiola's side in front at the halfway stage of the tie.
City, who played out a thrilling 2-2 draw with Liverpool in the Premier League on Sunday, were forced to be extremely patient against Atletico, with Diego Simeone's side showing little intent to win the game. They sat deep and formed low-blocks to make life as difficult as possible for the Blues.
