The Champions League title continues to elude Manchester City who have now spent several seasons falling short in this competition. They are currently in a Premier League title race with Arsenal and will take time out from domestic matters to focus on a clash against RB Leipzig. City have done the hard work in terms of securing a 1-1 draw at the Red Bull Arena.
Riyad Mahrez was able to give the English champions the lead before they were pegged back by opponents who will now look to take advantage of their chances in this clash. It could be a tense affair although many punters will be considering a BTTS Yes leg when it comes to placing their Champions League Bet Builder bets.
Erling Haaland will also be a popular bet to score in this game although the Norwegian has slowed down in terms of his goal rate and perhaps he can be nullified by opponents who will be familiar with his play. There will be reliance on players such as Kevin de Bruyne and Bernardo Silva to make things happen from the midfield position and they have the experience needed.
Leipzig have modest away form in the Bundesliga this season where they have won four, drawn four and lost four of their games on the road. Interestingly, a sum total of forty goals have been scored in away games and they were unlucky not to get something away to in-form Borussia Dortmund recently when losing 2-1 despite having twice as many shots on target.
