Rotation #224226: Champions League Wednesday Manchester City Money Line -153 vs Real Madrid @ 3 ET - Real Madrid, of course, is a top club and they have been enjoying plenty of success. However, this Manchester City club is on an incredible run on their home pitch plus they are the healthier club heading into this match-up. It looks like City should have all hands on deck for this one while Real Madrid has been without guys like Alaba and Courtois. Militao is back now for Real Madrid but is still not fully fit. Also, Tchouameni is out due to accumulating too many yellow cards. Yes, Real Madrid are on a 15-match unbeaten run but City is unbeaten in 27 consecutive matches! Not only that, on their home pitch, Manchester City is unbeaten in 41 straight matches! Of course a draw here means a loss for us but I do not expect City to allow this match to get way from them and they put it away comfortably during regulation time. The last time Manchester City hosted Real Madrid they prevailed 4-0. This one will not be so easy but City will pull away as this match goes on. City was a bit sloppy at the back in the draw at Real Madrid but they will shore that up here at home plus some of their key players that had mediocre games in the away match will come up big here at home. It is much different for Real Madrid trying to be so strong on the counter-attack when you are away compared to at home. Couple that with the attacking prowess of City and I look for Real Madrid to be pushed back on their heels from the get-go in this one. The hosts are worth the price here. MANCHESTER CITY -153
