PREVIEW & TIPS FOR Manchester City vs B. Monchengladbach
On Tuesday evening, from 20:00, Manchester City must fulfill a simple formality in front of the Germans from Borussia Monchengladbach, in the return of the eighth finals of the Champions League.
After 2-0 in the round, the match at Ferenc Puskas Arena in Budapest should not cause problems for the English, who approach the match on neutral ground with a complete group. Instead, Marco Rose has some staffing issues.
Manchester City Team News
In comparison, City comes after a good series of results, if we ignore the failure in the derby with Manchester United (0-2). In the last two stages of the championship, the “citizens” passed Southampton (2-0) and Fulham (3-0), and the title is just a formality at the moment. Besides the championship, however, Pep Guardiola has a big stake in UCL, where he has not yet given satisfaction on Manchester City’s bench. The English do not want to complicate their lives and will “arrest” again the possession of the ball, as they did on the tour, in order not to allow the Germans to hope for a surprise. That’s why we hesitate to bet on a “rain of goals”, because City has no reason to force.
Manchester City have won 4 of the last 5 direct duels with Gladbach, the team they have met five times in the last five seasons. I have always seen a spectacular, quality football, but this time we anticipate a game similar to the one in the round – with clear dominance of the favorites and few chances to score for Borussia. City has 616 minutes without a goal in UCL and is close to setting an impressive record in case it escapes “untouched” in the return match with Gladbach. But, with 23 victories in the last 24 matches, City raises the issue of its score on Tuesday, rather than following the statistics. Without shining, Manchester will make their life easy at home.
B. Monchengladbach Team News
Gladbach will not be able to count on Bensebaini and Kramer, injured, in this match, while Quizera and Musel are uncertain. Only the Algerian’s absence from the defense can be considered important, but Gladbach has other problems on his head besides the injuries in the team.
Since announcing that he will take over Borussia Dortmund next season, manager Marco Rose seems to be unable to get anything out of his players: he has reached 6 consecutive failures in all competitions and has long since left the European zone of the Bundesliga standings. It is not an ideal preparation for the match with the best team in England!
So, Monchengladbach took another wrong step at the weekend, when they lost in Augsburg without appeal, score 1-3. This score followed other disappointing failures, with Leverkusen (0-1), Dortmund (0-1), RB Leipzig (2-3), Manchester City (0-2 in the round) and Mainz (1-2). Even though he has quality offensive players, such as Plea or Thuram, Gladbach pays tribute to defensive errors and Manchester City should be able to impose their game in Tuesday night’s game. Plea will be the most dangerous man in the black and white camp, with a good quota for the goal scored.
