Real Madrid host Manchester City in the first leg of the Champions League’s Round of 16. These two teams have met in every single edition of the European tournament for the last five years and 2026 couldn’t be the exception. This time, Los Blancos will host City and they’ll be the underdogs in this round, so it will be interesting to see if Arbeloa’s men can pull the upset and advance to the Quarterfinals.
