2009-10 UCL winner Wesley Sneijder feels that the match could go into extra time, after a 1-1 draw. The former Inter player and Dutch legend also predicted that it would go into penalties. "Manchester City can win the treble but they won’t. To win the Champions League after the league and cup is an incredible feeling. My prediction is that it is going to penalties. That is exciting for everyone so I think full time 1-1 and then Inter win on penalties", he said.
City boast the most in-form striker in the world currently, in the guise of Erling Haaland. The Norwegian won the Premier League Golden Boot with 36 goals in 35 matches. Meanwhile, he will also bag the UCL top-scorer award, and has already scored 12 in 10 matches. He will look to trouble Inter's reputed backline with his runs, physicality and technique.

With all of the technical players around him he was just the missing part for Manchester City. He is the difference maker…. the most important player [at City this season] has been Haaland. Without a doubt Haaland."
