Minute-by-minute report: Who will book their place against Inter in the Istanbul final? Find out with Barry Glendenning
Szymon Marciniak has refereed 29 matches at home and abroad so far this season, showing 134 yellow cards and two reds in the process.Ruled out with a hamstring injury that has kept him sidelined for Manchester City’s past two games, Nathan Ake is the only player ruled out of Pep Guardiola’s squad through injury or suspension, although the manager promised he plans to do “something different” in this evening’s second leg.
Given his prediliction for overthinking tactics going into crunch encounters in a way that isn’t always beneficial for his team’s chances of success, it should also be added that Pep was also quick to put the minds of supporters at rest and seems unlikely to play Ederson up front in place of Erling Haaland and start Phil Foden in goal.
“I have an idea to do something differently, just to be more fluid in attack,” he told reporters. “It’s nothing special. I’m not overthinking tomorrow, don’t worry guys. Nothing different to what we have done in the past.” Carlo Ancelotti’s sole injury concern is in regard to Eduardo Camavinga, who limped out of Real’s La Liga win over Getafe last Saturday but may be fit to resume his role at left-back this evening. David Alaba, Rodrygo and Karim Benzema were all rested for the Getafe game but are expected to return tonight.
Ancelotti must also decide whether to start Antonio Rudiger, who kept Erling Haaland on an impressively tight rein last week, or welcome back Eder Militao, who missed the first leg through suspension.players could start, with Alaba moving to left-back, Camavinga moving to his usual midfield role and Rodrygo dropping to the bench. In other news relating to potential ANcelotti tinkering, Real left-back Ferland Mendy is also fit again after returning from a calf injury he picked up two months ago.
