Spanish and German powerhouses come together for the second leg in Madrid

Real Madrid are currently positioned as the frontrunners to secure a spot in the Champions League final, especially as they head into their semi-final return leg against Bayern Munich this Wednesday. Their recent 3-0 victory over Cadiz underscores their formidable form this season. Real Madrid, having clinched yet another LaLiga title, have established themselves as the epitome of professionalism, particularly excelling in high-stakes encounters with unwavering composure.

On the other hand, Bayern Munich faced a setback with their 3-1 loss to Stuttgart, they have encountered a series of setbacks throughout the season, and they now find themselves in a position where they must summon their collective strength to defy the odds in the challenging atmosphere of the Spanish capital. Despite their dominance for most of the match at the Allianz Arena, Bayern will be frustrated to not be travelling to the Spanish capital with a lead.
