Manchester City vs Atlético Madrid live stream: How to watch Champions League Quarter-Final online

The Manchester City vs Atlético Madrid live stream is a huge clash in the Champions League Quarter-Finals between two teams desperate to win the competition for the first time.

Both are the reigning champions in their domestic leagues. However, while Manchester City are currently top of the Premier League, Atlético sit in third, 12 points behind local rivals Real Madrid in La Liga. That is despite not having lost a game in the league since a defeat by Levante in mid-February. Indeed, that is the last time they lost a game in any competition.

Pep Guardiola’s team comfortably dispatched Burnley at the weekend, winning 0-2 at Turfmoor. They beat Sporting Lisbon in even easier fashion in the previous round of the Champions League, winning 5-0 on aggregate, with all the goals scored in a totally dominant first-leg performance.

Diego Simeone’s side had to see off the red half of Manchester in their Round-of-16 tie. They beat Manchester United 2-1 on aggregate, thanks to a goal from Renan Lodi at Old Trafford. If they repeat that result, it will be the first time they have won on consecutive visits to English sides. Aléti will have to do it without defender Jose Gimenez, though, who has not travelled with his teammates due to an injury.

Atlético Madrid were 4-1 winners at home to Alaves at the weekend, with most of the goals coming in a 15-minute flurry at the end of the match that saw Luiz Suárez score two, including a penalty, and Joao Félix adding to one he had scored earlier.

Despite all their success in recent years, Tuesday’s Manchester City vs Atlético Madrid live stream will be the first ever meeting between these teams in European competition. However, the two managers have met on three previous occasions, with Guardiola claiming two wins.

Here's how they line up:

Manchester City: Ederson, Stones, Laporte, Ake, Cancelo, Rodrigo, Gundogan (C), Bernardo, Mahrez, De Bruyne, Sterling

Atletico Madrid: Oblak, Vrsaljko, Savic, Felipe, Mandava, Lodi, Llorente, Kondogbia, Koke, Griezmann, Felix
