Manchester City will face Bayer Leverkusen at the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday night in what will be Pep Guardiola’s 100th UCL game in charge of the Cityzens.

Now, let’s take a closer look at some Champions League odds and betting angles for Tuesday’s fixture:

Man City v Bayer Leverkusen – Tuesday, 8pm

Punters can bet on Man City v Bayer Leverkusen with William Hill

Manchester City return to UEFA Champions League action after seeing their four game winning streak come to an end after a 2-1 defeat away at Newcastle United, that’s now two defeats in their last four Premier League games as they fall seven points behind Arsenal at the top.
Pep Guardiola will be glad to get his side back to familiar surroundings having won each of their last seven games at the Etihad Stadium in all competitions, whilst they are unbeaten in their last twenty-three group/league matches in this competition on home soil.
This is the first UEFA competition meeting between these two clubs. The good news for Manchester City is the fact they have lost only one of their last 24 UEFA matches against German teams (W19 D4) while Leverkusen have won only one of their previous 12 away from home against English teams (D3 L8).
——————————–
Bayer Leverkusen have failed to hit the heights that they did under Xabi Alonso but that’s understandable given so much change in personnel but having picked up their first win of this UCL campaign in their last outing away at Benfica, they’ll be looking to upset the odds in this one.
Leverkusen have lost only three of their last 20 UEFA competition group/league matches (W12 D5), victory here in Manchester would bring up a 50th Champions League win for the German side.
We could be in for goals on Tuesday night but i’m expecting Manchester City to return to winning ways, depending on results elsewhere they could even find themselves move to the summit of this league phase.

Prediction: Erling Haaland To Score 2 Or More Goals, Manchester City 4-1 Bayer Leverkusen.
