Having exacted revenge on Madrid, the holders, in this season's last four with a 5-1 aggregate triumph, they are now expected to complete the job at the Ataturk Olympic Stadium. A victory for City will see them complete the treble after they claimed a fifth Premier League title in six seasons and then lifted the FA Cup last weekend, beating Manchester United 2-1 in the final.Ilkay Gundogan was City's goal hero in the FA Cup final, as Erling Haaland drew a rare blank, but the Norwegian has scored 52 times for his club this season.

We’re all big players, we know how to play finals.” City did not return to Europe's top table until 2011, by which time former Inter coach Roberto Mancini was at the helm.
