Monaco vs Manchester City Prediction & Betting tips
Monaco :
After the 5-3 defeat in Manchester three weeks ago, AS Monaco necessary goals; at least two. But if these two are achieved, Monaco thanks to three away goals a big advantage over Manchester City. They know in Monaco of course, but scoring two goals could be difficult. On the other hand; the goals fly in Monaco like hot cakes. After 29 games in Ligue 1 Monaco has already made 84 goals. That’s 26 more than runner-up PSG and 37 more than number three, Nice.
Monaco last weekend got off to a good general in Ligue 1 by winning at home 2-1 Girondins de Bordeaux. Kylian Mbappe and João Moutinho made their goals relatively late in the game, but it was enough to make the tying goal from Rolan 84 minutes are harmless. In the first half left Monaco still are a number of good chances, which was partly due to the fact that Radamel Falcao started on the bench. When he came in began to run, and four minutes after his invasion turn he had been standing an assist to his name.
Starting on the bench to do the top scorer of Monaco with the fact that he was just two weeks injured. Against Bordeaux he was in the closing stages to process a tick, what makes him doubtful for the match. The Champions League is taken very seriously, perhaps even more so after the historic 6-1 defeat of PSG at FC Barcelona. Monaco is the only remaining French team in the Champions League and have to keep the honor of seeing high. That is absolutely possible, because in the first leg left AS Monaco already seen at least as equivalent to City.
Probable lineup Monaco
Subasic, Sidibé, Raggi, jemerson, Mendy, Bernardo Silva, Moutinho, Fabinho, Lemar, Falcao, Mbappe
Manchester City :
Pep Guardiola has already indicated that he does not change his philosophy and so we can expect an attacking Manchester City. Guardiola does not want The Citizens travel to France to defend, and that is perhaps just as well. Everyone knows namely what that institution has ended for Paris Saint-Germain in the return match against FC Barcelona, and such a scenario would avoid the expense Guardiola what expense.
Last weekend played Manchester City still the quarterfinals of the FA Cup, where Middlesbrough was the opponent. Guardiola chose a strong team to send on the field, and that means, among others, Sergio Aguero, David Silva, Kevin De Bruyne, Raheem Sterling, LEROY SANÉ and basically the whole reutemeteut have made a lot of minutes. It resulted in a 0-2 victory, but the choice of Guardiola to establish such a strong team was striking.
A few days earlier, had Manchester City namely still at home against Stoke City. That match ended in a 0-0 draw, but then Guardiola opted for a strong eleven. Of course he will play against Monaco with the strongest possible team, but there is some fatigue can creep into the squad. Pep however is not particularly worried and is convinced that the will to reach the quarterfinals will overcome any fatigue.
Probable formation Manchester City
Caballero, Zabaleta, Stones, Otamendi, Clichy, Sterling, De Bruyne, Touré, Silva, Sané, Aguero
