The Champions League semifinal tie between Real Madrid and Manchester City is coming to a head in Spain on Wednesday, and it's anyone's game. The two teams played to a scoreless draw in England a week ago, and this tie looks like one that's going to be won or lost by the narrowest of margins.

Can Manchester City take better advantage of Real Madrid missing stars than they did last week?
While Real Madrid will be getting Cristiano Ronaldo back from injury, they will be without Karim Benzema -- who was hobbled in the first leg -- and also will miss Casemiro, whose defensive work in midfield has brought a stabilizing element to what had been a very inconsistent group this season. Manchester City failed to take advantage of Madrid's absences in the first leg, though, and you have to wonder if they'll even be capable of taking that advantage when playing on hostile ground when they couldn't with their home fans at their backs.
Manuel Pellegrini’s team is going to have to play out of their minds to get the win here -- but coming into the game with the aggregate score at 0-0, one early goal could be all the difference City need to kick this tie wide open.
