RB Leipzig vs Manchester City Betting Preview
RB Leipzig are currently involved in the fight for the domestic title. They sit 5th in the Bundesliga table but trail the league leaders by only 4 points. They have returned to winning ways over the weekend, beating Wolfsburg 3-0 on the road. As to the Champions League, the Bundesliga outfit have progressed to the knockout stage despite losing the first tow games against Shakhtar Donetsk and Real Madrid, as they bounced back to win their remaining four games (including a stunning 4-2 victory over the La Liga champions). Those four wins took place during a 18-game unbeaten streak across all competitions, which was then brught to an end when they lost 2-1 at home at the hands of Union Berlin.
Manchester City will aim to return to winning ways following a disappointing 1-1 Premier League draw with Nottingham Forest last time out. They have been a inconsistent in the league this season and they find themselves two points behind league leaders Arsenal having played one game more than the Gunners. As to the Champions League, the Cityzens have topped their group ahead of Borussia Dortmund, Sevilla and Copenhagen after winning four and drawing two of their six group-stage games.
Best Odds
The hosts are 7/2 undedog with Unibet to win the first leg in front of their own fans. Man City are 10/11 chances with Livescore Bet to come away with a win. The draw is backable at 11/4 with QuinnBet.
Probable Line-Ups
RB Leipzig (4-2-3-1): Blaswich; Klostermann, Orban, Gvardiol, Raum; Schlager, Laimer; Szoboszlai, Forsberg, Nkunku; Werner
Peter Gulacsi, Dani Olmo and Abdou Diallo are missing for the home side while Christopher Nkunku should recover in time to feature from the off. That would see Timo Werner starting as lone forward, with Andre Silva making room. Dominic Szoboszlai and Emil Forsberg will complete the offensive midfield trio, while Konrad Laimer and Xaver Schlager should form the midfield pair. In defense Marcel Halstenberg will be pushing to start ahead of David Raum at left-back while Lukas Klosterman should get the nod over Mohamed Simakan on the other side.
Manchester City (4-3-3): Ederson; Walker, Akè, Akanji, Ruben Dias; Rodri, Bernardo Silva, Gundogan; Mahrez, Grealish, Haaland.
John Stones remains injured, while Kevin De Bruyne and Aymeric Laporte are also expected to miss out after their absence from training on Tuesday morning. Riyad Mahrez could come in for either Jack Grealish or Phil Foden up front, where Erling Haaland will retain his starting berth ahead of Julian Alvarez. Bernardo Silva is expected to continue in his makeshift left-back role, anchoring the midfield alongside Ilaky Gundogan and Rodri.
RB Leipzig vs Manchester City Betting Tips
The odds for a RB Leipzig victory are shortening after the rumours that Kevin De Bruyne has been ruled out.
We also believe it will be a fiercely contested match but we believe the Cityzens will return from Germany with a draw.
We also fancy the "both teams to score" bet and we back the 1-1 scoreline in the Correct Score market.
As for potential players to be booked, Josko Gvardiol is our pick.
