Real Madrid and Manchester City will play each other in what might be the biggest Champions League game this week. The two teams are the main favorites to lift the Champions League trophy on the last day of the season. The first leg will be played tomorrow at the Santiago Bernabeu, and the second leg will be next week at the Etihad Stadium. Both teams are stacked with talented players and have arguably the best squads in all of Europe. While both teams have some of the best players in the world, Pep Guardiola and Manchester City will be without one of their key players, who is arguably the best in his position.

Sky Sports News reported that Manchester City defenders Gvardiol, Ake, and Walker were all missing from group training ahead of the Champions League tie against Real Madrid tomorrow. Walker and Ake did not travel with the Man City squad for the game in Spain tomorrow against Real Madrid. Guardiola was asked last week if Walker would be available for the Real Madrid match, and he said, "Kyle Walker playing against Real Madrid? The doctors said no. But, Kyle is Kyle, he has special genetics. The doctor said it was quite serious. But Kyle is Kyle."

Real Madrid's manager Carlo Ancelotti was also asked about the absence of Kyle Walker being a positive factor for his team. Ancelotti said, "Kyle Walker is probably out, so does that mean Vini Jr. will be the key? Both teams have lot of quality and players. We need to trust our plan and trust ourselves to execute it. We need to give our 100% and be efficient."
