The draw for the 2015/16 UEFA Champions League semi-final was held on Friday, handing us two exciting fixtures in the form of Man City vs. Real Madrid and Atletico vs. Bayern Munich.
The result of these last 4 match-ups means two things: the final in Milan could be an all-Madrid affair between the Blancos and Rojiblancos, with the other being Guardiola facing next season's employers: the Citizens.
It was only two years back when the now 10-time Champions League winners clashed with their Spanish capital neighbors in the ultimate game, which ended 4-1 in favor of Cristiano and Co. after extra time.
The fans took to Twitter to express their desire in seeing Los Blancos vs Los Rojiblancos in Milan, but what are the odds of another Madrid derby Champions League final occurring?
Although the stats favor Zinedine Zidane’s boys to get past Man City, the numbers don’t fully back Diego Simeone’s crew to overcome Bayern.
Les Merengues have locked horns with the Etihad side twice, with the Premier League giants yet to come out victorious. Furthermore, the Spanish heavyweights have outscored their semis opponents by 26 goals to 18, with top-scorer Cristiano boasting 16 goals.

Over to the Vicente Calderon, and the 2013/14 Liga BBVA winners are undefeated at home in their last 5 games against German opponents.
However, Bayern locked horns with Atletico on only one previous occasion in a 1974 final, with the Bundesliga giants thrashing the Spanish side 4-0.
