Champions League Lyon vs Manchester City

Although not one of the toughest duels in the UCL this evening, the game between Olympique Lyon and Manchester City scheduled from 22:00 on the French stadium will certainly be the host of an extraordinary show, especially since the fight for the first position is in playing, all three points being needed for both French and English.

Lyon has been impressed so far in both competitions, whether internally or externally, but the maximum satisfaction really comes from the UCL, although Ligue 1 is still a good launch pad in such a cup Europe. 2nd place and 27 points so far in the French championship for Lyon, a decent run for Bruno Genesio’s formation that is there in the fight for the UCL groups, being a goal that can be reached. In UCL, he has a chance to win a Champions League qualification in the spring, with no more than 6 points so far, with 3 over 3rd place combatants. The 1 st place is hard to reach and victory is needed in this in the evening, but with one point it could keep its intact position until the next game.

Lyon’s probable team: Lopes; Denayer, Marcelo, Morel; Rafael, Ndombele, Aouar, Mendy; Fekir; Depay, Dembele

Manchester City is ready to just leave the opponent in his hand and clarify the situation from the first half as he has managed to do so lately. Pep Guardiola’s formation felt at the beginning of the season, either in the championship or in the UCL, that if he fails to break into the first half and make a show in the first 45 minutes, the situation does not seem to calm down after the break, so it is a very clear target imposed by the Spanish, as well as the extremely notable results of recent times. Eight consecutive victories in all competitions for the citizens, only receiving 2 goals in these games, and only scored by just 30 goals. In the championship he is a 35-point leader with just two advances over Liverpool, while in the UCL the same situation only has 3 more than Lyon at the moment. The last success scored a hallucinatory score on Etihat Stadium, 6-0 for citizens against Sahtior, and the European spring is sure to see this stadium in 2019.

Manchester City team probable: Ederson; Walker, Stones, Kompany, Zinchenko; Foden, Fernandinho, Bernardo; Mahrez, Aguero, Sane

Maybe the most interesting duel took place at the very beginning when Lyon surprises Etihad and managed to make it, and certainly this time, Pep Guardiola’s players will want to take revenge and train with the band to Bruno Genesio. I will still bet on a score with many goals, at least 3, with both high chances to score or even 4 for the brave.
