Real Madrid are aiming for another famous UEFA Champions League night as they host Bayern Munich in the semifinal second leg on May 8.

Los Blancos sealed a 2-2 draw in their first-leg trip to Bavaria last week as Harry Kane and Vinicius Junior both scored from the penalty spot.

However, with their La Liga title now confirmed, Carlo Ancelotti's team can now throw everything at a push for the Champions League crown this season.

The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch it worldwide, kickoff times and the latest lineup news.
