Schalke 04 v Man City Predictions for Wednesday's CL 1/8 finals first leg at the Veltins Arena in Gelsenkirchen. Manchester City are in red-hot form in front of goal and will want to put this tie to bed with a big first-leg lead – as they are very capable of doing. Read on for all our predictions and betting tips.
To make things worse, the German outfit have only won four of their last 13 matches in all competitions and beating the Premier League champions over two legs looks all but improbable for Domenico Tedesco's team at the moment.
The visitors from Manchester have had joy scoring 50 goals since Christmas on all four fronts they are currently competing, and have been victorious in their last four and in 12 of their last 13 matches.
Pep Guardiola has a fine record against Schalke as a manager, as in six matches he has yet to suffer defeat. Man City averaged 3.67 goals per game in the group stage and an impressive 76% of their competitive matches this season have ended with at least 3 goals being scored, so we're going for a Manchester City Win and Over 2.5 Goals bet.
Man City (4-3-3): Ederson; Zinchenko, Laporte, Otamendi, Walker; Silva, Fernandinho, Bruyne; Sterling, Aguero, Silva.
Man City: Claudio Bravo, Vincent Kompany, Benjamin Mendy.
