Manchester City: current form, latest results, statistics
Slightly the favorite in terms of odds listed by online betting agencies licensed in Romania, Manchester City does not have an easy mission at all. Meet a team that comes eager to achieve the second consecutive success. On the other hand, we are talking about a Premier League team that is mathematically qualified in the spring Champions League. He leads Group C detachedly, with 13 points, having three lengths over FC Porto and ten over the occupants of the last two places in the group. Thus, Guardiola & CO. are the only ones who have not lost in this group, with four victories and a draw.
- Probable team: Ederson – Cancelo, Garcia, Laporte, Ake – Gungogan, Fernandinho, Doyle – Siulva, Torres, Foden
Olympique Marseille: current form, latest results, statistics
A very good game proposed by Marseille made her reach three consecutive victories in all competitions, she went 3-1 to Nantes and 2-0 to Nimes, both matches being played in Ligue 1. But not in the League either. The champions did not let themselves be outdone, as proof comes after their first success in Group C. This happened due to the 2-1 victory over the Greeks from Olympiakos, in front of which they lost in the round with 0-1. Despite that result, the French team remains the leader of the group, with 3 points, and in order to move on in the spring, the Europa League needs not to lose on the Etihad.
- Probable team: Mandanda – Sakai, Gonzalez, Caleta-Car, Amavi – Kamara, Rongier – Thauvin, Cuisance, Hernique – Benedetto
- Suspended: Leonardo Balerdi
- Injured: Nemanja Radonjic
Manchester City vs Olympique Marseille Picks
I would not be surprised to see at least one goal coming from OM; given that they are in dire need of points in their race for European spring. Consequently, I expect at least three goals to be scored. In the tour, City paraded in France where they won 3-0.
Our Prediction: Over 2.5 goals
Odds: 1.67
