Manchester City will be looking to equal a Champions League winning record when they lock horns with Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu for the second leg of their semi-final on Wednesday.
Pep Guardiola's men secured a thrilling 4-3 first-leg victory over Los Blancos last week, with Kevin De Bruyne, Gabriel Jesus, Phil Foden and Bernardo Silva all on the scoresheet at the Etihad Stadium.
The Citizens have now won each of their last three Champions League meetings against Real Madrid, including the 4-2 aggregate victory in 2019-20 which saw City win 2-1 in both legs of their last-16 tie.
Should the Premier League leaders come out on top in the Spanish capital, they would become only the third team in Champions League history to win four successive matches against Los Blancos, after Ajax between 1973 and 1995 and Bayern Munich between 2000 and 2002.
City could also become just the fourth English side in European Cup/Champions League history to reach consecutive finals if they were to beat Real Madrid on aggregate, after Liverpool (1977 and 1978, 1984 and 1985, 2018 and 2019), Manchester United (2008 and 2009) and Nottingham Forest (1979 and 1980).
Furthermore, Guardiola could break two Champions League records as a manager should his City side win on Wednesday and progress to the showpiece event later this month.
City head into Wednesday's clash after comfortably beating Leeds United 4-0 at Elland Road on Sunday, while Real Madrid wrapped up the La Liga title with victory over Espanyol by the same scoreline on Saturday.
