madrid there is always real madrid there is always expectation to win the champions league and if they don't you can see casualties in the form of a manager. carlo ancelotti, if he gets the result thereafter, let's say they lose on a tight margin, 2—1 or something like that, it may not be too bad and he can keep hisjob. but if they get pummelled into oblivion then carlo ancelotti could lose his job, because notjust losing the champions league but the way in which they did so so there is always pressure on real madrid to win the games. so in terms of who can have a better outcome, i think real madrid may need it a bit more considering they did not win the league or retain any title this season. and city's case they are still fighting for a historic treble. i would say it is a really big one for both. it is difficult to say which one needs it more, which one goes in as a

bigger game. we it more, which one goes in as a bigger game-— it more, which one goes in as a bineruamer ., ., ~ bigger game. we have talked about antonio rudiger _ bigger game. we have talked about antonio rudiger and _ bigger game. we have talked about antonio rudiger and madrid - bigger game. we have talked about | antonio rudiger and madrid midfield but if we look at the attacking threat they will pose here, karen benzema, vinicius threat they will pose here, karen benzema, viniciuer, roderigo, do you think they will try to play this on the counterattack or will they play the real madrid way and let city counter? i play the real madrid way and let city counter?— play the real madrid way and let city counter? i think it is entirely ossible city counter? i think it is entirely possible that _ city counter? i think it is entirely possible that we _ city counter? i think it is entirely possible that we see _ city counter? i think it is entirely possible that we see different i possible that we see different versions of real madrid across the 90 minutes, much like we did in the bernabeu which is to say at the start they were happy to sit back and let city have the ball in play with possession and when they got the rare opportunity to go forward which didn't happen too often they took it. but we think about real madrid they almost always finish, they are probably the most effective counter attacking side in europe. will they take more risks? potentially. both teams need to take

more risks than in the first game. i still think it will be a chess match and quite tight but i definitely think they have plenty of attacking power to do damage to city's back line. may be the focus will be on shutting down vinicius line. may be the focus will be on shutting down viniciuer but karen benzema is the highest scoring real madrid player against city so you can completely discount what he can offer up and roderigo is hitting form in the right moment of time just as he did last season. he is incredibly decisive and not only does he score goals but he provides assists and he has now more mobility and freedom to come inside if you want to play off benzema as a striker or stay out wide, so he is a little bit more difficult to keep at bay, and i think in that sense it makes him a little bit more dangerous than the other two like ben then there is reinforcements on the bench like asensio who has been coming off the bench and scoring

regularly. it will all depend on the phase of the game in which they may say, let's be a little bit more defensive, old fire and wait for opportunities, or maybe they will see an opening in say now is the moment to pressure and push more and go for goals, so i think we will see a combination of both.— go for goals, so i think we will see a combination of both. great stuff, thank ou a combination of both. great stuff, thank you very _ a combination of both. great stuff, thank you very much _ a combination of both. great stuff, thank you very much for _ a combination of both. great stuff, thank you very much forjoining - a combination of both. great stuff, | thank you very much forjoining us. we've got michael brown with us and ray bubbles from city fan tv is here too. ray — how are you feeling? iam i am nervous, iam nervous, i i am nervous, i am excited, still four orfive i am nervous, i am excited, still four or five hours before i am nervous, i am excited, still four orfive hours before kick—off. it is a momentous occasion for city tonight. the culmination of ten or 12 years of the ownership. ijust can't wait for tonight, can't wait for kick—off. can't wait for tonight, can't wait for kick-offl— for kick-off. what does the championship _ for kick-off. what does the championship mean - for kick-off. what does the championship mean for- for kick-off. what does the | championship mean for city for kick-off. what does the - championship mean for city fans? i think it means more and more each

he says the uncertainty that comes with being a tenant can be a strain. i don't believe there is security in the rent. i have always been a bit conscious of the rent, it always goes up, it never goes down. it is always going up and sometimes it can be 100, £200. it's always massive insecurity about how much it's going to go up by and whether you can afford it. the government's long promised changes are designed to bring more stability to the rental sector in england. landlords will be banned from evicting tenants withoutjustification in what ministers describe as a once in a generation overhaul. it is making sure that the promise we made on the 2019 manifesto is kept. the big changes that section 21 evictions, no—fault evictions, go. in one of the reason is that are so important as these evictions have

been used, or rather the threat of them have been used, by rogue landlords to intimidate tenants into accepting poor standards are extortionate rent increases. the renters reform bill also aims to guarantee safer, better quality homes with a decent home standard, make it illegal for landlords to ban outright tenants on benefits or those with children, and enable landlords to evict anti—social tenants or those in rent arrears more easily. landlords say the plans lacked detail. i landlords say the plans lacked detail. ~ ., , landlords say the plans lacked detail. ~ . , ., ., , detail. i think many landlords will be nervous _ detail. i think many landlords will be nervous about _ detail. i think many landlords will be nervous about situations - detail. i think many landlords will| be nervous about situations where tenants have an ongoing tenancy and in order to evict they will have to go to court. inevitably some more landlords will lead the market and we could have a bigger problem around rental supply.— we could have a bigger problem around rental supply. labour are backin: around rental supply. labour are backing these — around rental supply. labour are backing these plans _ around rental supply. labour are backing these plans but - around rental supply. labour are backing these plans but argue i around rental supply. labour are l backing these plans but argue the bigger issue is a lack of new homes being built. bigger issue is a lack of new homes bein: built. , ., , bigger issue is a lack of new homes being built-— being built. yes, more rights for renters, being built. yes, more rights for renters. very — being built. yes, more rights for renters, very signed _ being built. yes, more rights for renters, very signed up - being built. yes, more rights for renters, very signed up for- being built. yes, more rights for renters, very signed up for that, security— renters, very signed up for that, security for _ renters, very signed up for that, security for renters is very important. but if we don't roll up

millions of people rely on buses to get to work, go to the shops and see family and friends, but britain's network has been shrinking for years and the pandemic dealt another blow. more routes have been lost and passenger numbers are still lower than they used to be. the government has already provided about £2 billion to try and keep services running and since january it has paid for single bus fares to be capped at £2 paid for single bus fares to be capped at e2 in many parts of england. capped at £2 in many parts of encland. �* , _, capped at £2 in many parts of encland. �* , ., ., england. i've become familiar with the £2 fare- _ england. i've become familiar with the £2 fare- i _ england. i've become familiar with the £2 fare. i believe _ england. i've become familiar with the £2 fare. i believe before - england. i've become familiar with the £2 fare. i believe before that l the £2 fare. i believe before that probably paid anything between £3 and £5 to get to where i was trying to get to. and £5 to get to where i was trying to net to. ., , and £5 to get to where i was trying touetto. . , ,, and £5 to get to where i was trying to netto. . , ,, ., and £5 to get to where i was trying touetto. . , ,, ., to get to. really helps me to save some money- _ to get to. really helps me to save some money. that _ to get to. really helps me to save some money. that was _ to get to. really helps me to save some money. that was all- to get to. really helps me to save some money. that was all due - to get to. really helps me to save some money. that was all due to | some money. that was all due to finish at the _ some money. that was all due to finish at the end _ some money. that was all due to finish at the end of— some money. that was all due to finish at the end ofjune. - some money. that was all due to finish at the end ofjune. now - some money. that was all due to i finish at the end ofjune. now £200 million will be put towards keeping the £2 fare until the end of october and a cap of £2 50 for a further

if you are heading out this evening, temperatures generally in the mid—teens and any sunshine, it should feel quite pleasant out there. not too much of a breeze around for most of us into tonight. then we're looking at further outbreaks of rain over scotland, tending to become lighter and patchier in nature where we have had some daytime showers elsewhere. these should largely fade away to allow for some variable amounts of cloud overnight. it will be milder than the night just gone too, with those overnight lows dipping away to around seven to ten degrees celsius. as for tomorrow, then, we do have a cold front working its way eastwards, but actually it's not really making much of the way of progress in land. will bring a bit more cloud to parts of northern ireland and scotland, which could locally be on the heavy side. further south, a drier story, but still cloud building as the day wears on. showers cropping up generally from a region from around dorset to around yorkshire and then anywhere to the southeast of that so some of these showers could be on the sharp side. if you are in the sunshine, temperatures could get up to around 19 or 20 celsius at best. looking further out, thursday night into friday, this cold front making its journey

southeastwards across the country, this will tend to pep up some of those showers, too. so the showers mainly focused across parts of wales, central and eastern england, too. it could feel quite wet in places actually, and feeling quite cool if you are stuck under that cloud. but it will be a drier day for parts of scotland and northern ireland, with temperatures once again getting up into the mid to upper teens for many of us. as for this weekend, the further south you are something drier and brighter. always the chance for a bit more cloud and outbreaks of rain over scotland and northern ireland. but in the sunshine it should feel pleasantly warm.
