RB Leipgiz vs Manchester City

Match Preview

If Pep Guardiola needs a pick-me-up after Manchester City’s loss in the Premier League, a dose of UEFA Champions League action may be just the thing.

With 97 victories from 154 games handled in the tournament, the former Barcelona and Bayern Munich manager has the greatest win percentage (63%) of those in charge of more than 50 games in the competition’s history. Moreover, with Manchester City having only lost one of their previous 17 UEFA Champions League matches against German teams, expectations for success at the Red Bull Arena are high.

Last season, they were defeated by German opponents. RB Leipzig is the opponent. We’ll look at their two group stage matches from last season in a moment, but Marco Rose’s team have won their past four games in the tournament, their longest winning streak in the UCL. However, they have lost their past three knockout games without scoring, including back-to-back 2-0 defeats against Liverpool in the 2020-2021 season.

Leipzig vs City: Team News

The home side is without Peter Gulacsi, Dani Olmo, and Abdou Diallo, although Chelsea-bound Christopher Nkunku is in contention. Josko Gvardiol, a highly rated defender, will start alongside Timo Werner and Emil Forsberg.

City’s John Stones is still sidelined, and Riyad Mahrez might replace either Jack Grealish or Phil Foden. Bernardo Silva has recently been playing as a left-back, and it will be intriguing to see whether he continues to do so.

Blaswich; Klostermann, Orban, Gvardiol, Raum; Schlager, Laimer; Szoboszlai, Forsberg, Werner; Silva

Leipzig vs Manchester City

With the exception of the away victory against Arsenal, Man City have been far from their best on the road in recent weeks, and another test might be in store on Wednesday, as Leipzig have previously demonstrated their danger going forward against the Citizens.

Yet, City has a habit of rebounding strongly from setbacks, and we anticipate Guardiola’s key players to make the difference in a tight encounter in Germany.

We say: RB Leipzig 1-2 Manchester City
