Arise Television news anchor Aron Akerejola has predicted victory for Manchester City as they face Real Madrid in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League semi-finals at the Santiago Bernabeu.

He made this known on the Sports Update segment of the Morning Show on Tuesday, May 9.

According to him, the visitors who defeated Real Madrid 2-1 at the same stage of the competition last year will run out victors this time.

Meanwhile, Pep Guardiola has insisted that revenge was not his motivation as he prepares for the rematch.

The first leg of their latest encounter takes place at the Bernabeu on Tuesday and Guardiola is focusing on the game in hand rather than looking back 12 months.

"It was tough but we made an exceptional first game in Manchester and played a really good game here.

"In general it was a good performance but it was not enough. You congratulate them and accept it and now one year later we are here.

"We are not here for revenge. It is another opportunity. One day we will get it. We will get to the final and win it.

"It didn't happen last season as we played Real Madrid and in this competition they know exactly what they have to do."
