Man City to win and both teams to find the back of the net at 13/8 seems good value, whilst you can back a 3-2 City win at 16/1 with William Hill.
@Footy_Tipster gives his best predictions ahead of this round of fixtures in the UEFA Champions League..
The UEFA Champions League returns this week with some of Europe’s biggest clubs looking to put themselves on their way to Budapest for the final in May.
Manchester City are another side that go into Tuesday nights UEFA Champions League second-leg with it all to do, they’ll welcome Real Madrid to the Etihad Stadium.
Now, let’s take a closer look at some UEFA Champions League odds and betting angles for Tuesday’s fixture:
Manchester City v Real Madrid – Tuesday, 8pm
Punters can bet on Manchester City v Real Madrid with William Hill.
- It’s been a tough few days for Manchester City with their 3-0 defeat in Madrid last week followed up with a 1-1 draw away at West Ham on Saturday night, a result which leaves Pep Guardiola’s side now nine points off Arsenal at the top of the Premier League.
- Pep Guardiola admitted he thinks their chances of progressing are slim and given he hasn’t guided a side to overturn a first-leg deficit in the UCL to progress since 2014/15, the Cityzens are up against it here in terms of qualifying, you can back the Blues at 19/5 to progress with William Hill.
- Manchester City have scored two or more goals in eight successive home fixtures which does give City some confidence but given they’ve conceded in their last four games, that could be their downfall in this one.
——————————– - There’s just something about Real Madrid and the UEFA Champions League, it’s no secret that Los Blancos haven’t been playing to their usual standards this season but that emphatic victory in the first leg just shows what they are capable of in this competition.
- Los Blancos were able to build on their victory this weekend with a 4-1 win against Elche in La Liga and progression into the quarter-final is expected given they’ve progressed from all thirty-five previous major European ties in which they hold a 3 goal advantage from the first leg.
- Real Madrid have scored three goals in four of their last five Champions League knockout phase matches against Man City, we should see gaps in this City defence given they’ve got to go for it, goals are expected as always between these two sides and you can back over 3.5 goals at 11/10 with the leading bookmaker.
Prediction: Both Teams To Score & Manchester City to Win (13/8), Manchester City 3-2 Real Madrid (16/1).
