Preview

Erling Haaland is scoring goals like a treadmill, but he failed to score against RB Leipzig. That’s why Manchester City drew 1-1 in Germany. Now we will see a duel at the Etihad Stadium, where only Brentford has managed to win this season.

Pep Guardiola is the coach of Manchester City for the seventh season, but he still has not won the Champions League with the English club. He lifted the trophy above his head in 2009 and 2011 when he coached Barcelona.

Thus, in the press conference before the duel with RB Leipzig, he faced the question of whether his career in Manchester will be defined by winning the Champions League.

“From a public perspective, yes. That doesn’t mean I agree with it, but we will be judged by this competition. In my first Champions League game for the Citizens I was asked if I had come to win the Champions League. If I was coaching Real Madrid, I would understand the pressure,” the Spanish coach replied.

In England, of course, the Premier League championship is especially valued, which Guardiola has achieved 4 times in the last 5 seasons. The Champions League is therefore now undoubtedly the main target for this season. Even more so when they quite possibly won’t win the title in the top English league. Although it’s premature to write off the Citizens.

However, Manchester City will be at full strength on Tuesday and we can expect them to dominate again, most likely even more than they did in the first leg, when Guardiola’s charges had the ball on their kicks 61.9% of the time.

RB Leipzig have had a very difficult start to this season, but have only lost twice since the beginning of October (Union Berlin 1: 2 and Borussia Dortmund 2: 1).

Both the bookmakers and most experts agree that Manchester City will quietly advance, and we are expected to see goals fall. Over 2.5 at odds of 1.57 thus still offers quite interesting value.

Even more so when the German outfit has historically underperformed in the Isles. With English teams then only managing to win away against Tottenham, the Manchester United, Liverpool and Manchester City teams have won their home games by a combined score of 13:3.
