We are approaching the business end of the UEFA Champions League, as we reach the quarterfinal stage of the competition.
Manchester City remain the favourites to defend the trophy and if they were to do so, they would become only the second team to lift the title in its current format in back-to-back seasons, following Real Madrid.
Los Blancos are the second favourites, as they go in search of a record-extending 15th title.
