The second legs of this season's UEFA Champions League semi-finals are now around the corner. While the first tie between Manchester City and Real Madrid is balanced on a knife's edge, the Milan derby is heavily in favour of Inter Milan after their 2-0 win vs AC Milan in the first leg.
Inter haven't played the Champions League final since 2010, when they won the title. Before that their last final appearance was in 1972. Now they are on the verge of this season's final.
But the marquee clash continues to be the City vs Real toss-up. Pep Guardiola's men will be playing the second leg at home this time, unlike last season when they played Real at the Bernabeu at exactly this stage of the competition. Real beat City in the second leg at the Bernabeu 3-1 and 6-5 on aggregate and eventually went on to win the title, beating Liverpool 1-0 in the final. Carlo Ancelotti's men however will be a tough nut to crack, even though they haven't won a match in their last 4 visits to the Etihad Stadium.
