Sure win prediction today for Man City – Sporting
We are heading to the Etihad where Manchester City will host Sporting CP in a second leg from the Champions League 1/8-finals. Let us preview this game for you in our sure win prediction today.
This tie is basically over after Man City crushed Sporting with 5-0 in the first leg. Now the English side will try to enjoy in the second game while the Portuguese side will at least a make an effort to do better compared to the first game.
The first leg in Lisboa was a crushing experience for Sporting. Pep Guardiola’s team made one of its best games for the season and scored five times. Bernardo Silva put the ball twice in the net while Mahrez, Foden and Sterling scored as well. Everything Man City did in this game was according to their reputation of being one of the best teams in the world.
Because of the result in the first leg Pep Guardiola could make some rotations again. Some of the players who started from the bench against Manchester United should find a place in the line-up. We are talking about players like Ilkay Gundogan, Riyad Mahrez, Fernandinho, Gabriel Jesus, Raheem Sterling and Oleksandr Zinchenko. Just Gundogan played against United so the other ones should be well rested against Sporting.
Sporting also achieved a win in their last game in the Portuguese Primeira Liga. The Lions faced Arouca at home and achieved a 2-0 win. The Algerian striker islam Slimani became the hero as he scored both goals for the hosts. Maybe this would give him a place in the line-up for the second leg against Man City.
That’s our sure win prediction today for the Champions League game between Manchester City and Sporting CP on Wednesday. There’s no competition here after the result in the first leg, but we expect some good football for sure.
