Bristol City vs Manchester City Prediction & Betting Tips - Carabao Cup
by Steve Ashfield | in Carabao Cup Predictions
Manchester CIty are chasing a domestic treble and with the Premier League title already looking in the bag, they now try to reach the Carabao Cup Final. They had a tougher time than expected in the home leg, trailing 1-0 before coming back to win 2-1. They will of course play a weakened side but now they know just how Bristol City aim to play against them, Pep Guardiola is bound to select a team that will counter whatever the Championship side has to throw against them. City may well have fielded a below strength side in the first leg but having De Bruyne on from the start and being able to bring on Sergio Aguero to get the winning goal, shows the major problem Bristol City have if they want to get to Wembley. So far this season, the Championship side have beaten Stoke City, Crystal Palace and Manchester United at home in the Carabao Cup. They know that only a win will keep them alive in this competition but keeping a clean sheet against the visitors isn't going to be easy and it's doubtful they will be able to score at least twice to avoid being knocked out. Actually, being knocked out is probably going to be the best thing for them as all this cup glory nonsense is wrecking their promotion challenge. They have dropped from second to fifth in recent weeks and only have one point from their last five league games. Go for the Premier League leaders to get the win in this game as Bristol City keep attacking leaving them open to the counter-attack,
