Manchester City Preview – Can City make sure?
Although this 2nd leg Champions League tie will be played at a neutral venue at the Puskas Arena in Budapest, Manchester City are expected to progress to the next round of this competition without any hiccups as they hold a comfortable 2-0 lead after their 1st leg win away in Germany.
Manchester City secured a comfortable 3-0 win away from home at Fulham in the Premier League on the weekend to make it 23 wins out of their last 24 matches in all competitions with their one aberration being their 2-0 loss at home to local rivals, Manchester United in the derby.
It’s also just one defeat out of their last 17 ties in the Champions League as well for City who are in the driving seat in this 2nd leg tie against M’gladbach, while City have also beaten the -1.25 asian handicap line in nine of their 13 wins during this period too.
Borussia M’gladbach Preview – Can M’gladbach end worrying slump?
Following what seemed to be a promising eight-match unbeaten run in all competitions, German visitors, Borussia Moenchengladbach, have since slumped to a worrying eight-match winless streak in all competitions ahead of this 2nd leg tie in Budapest.
Seven defeats out of their last eight matches in all competitions isn’t the sort of form to bring into an important Champions League tie where you’re chasing down a 2-goal deficit, and M’gladbach will do well to earn even a draw here judging by their recent results.
M’gladbach have also lost their last three Champions League ties on the trot with defeats against Inter Milan, Real Madrid and the 1st leg loss to Manchester City, so this doesn’t bode well either for the German club.
