Preview

In our last Champions League fixture, we came from behind to beat Red Star Belgrade 3-1 at the Etihad Stadium last month.

RB Leipzig also won 3-1 against our other Group G rivals Young Boys.

The last match across all competitions was in the Premier League, where we fell to a 2-1 defeat against Wolves.

It should be an interesting match.

Team News

City’s injuries are Kevin De Bruyne, Bernardo Silva and John Stones as they are out.

For RBL, Olmo, Orban and Bitshiabu.

Prediction

Manchester City 3-0 RB Leipzig
