Leipzig vs Manchester City Prediction & Betting Tips - Champions League
by Nella Wagah | in Champions League Predictions
After back-to-back losses, Manchester City will be seeking to bounce back when they travel to Leipzig in the Champions League. Ahead of this Group G game, Leipzig are top though both sides have managed three points from Match Day 1. The other two clubs in this group are Red Star Belgrade and Young Boys. City and Leipzig are common foes in the Champions League and the Bundesliga side have had some good home results against their Premier League opponents at home and so appalling ones in Manchester.

Leipzig - Manchester City: Form Analysis
Leipzig are coming into this game on the back of a 2-2 draw with Bayern Munich. They will be beating themselves up for failing to win that match played at the weekend. Leipzig took a 2-0 first half lead, but they crumbled in the second half to see the match end in shared spoilers. That was the second straight game that they conceded twice in. Earlier they had beaten Wehen Wiesbaden 3-2 in the DFB Pokal. Four of their last five matches have had over 2.5 goals with both teams scored in three of four. Generally this season, Leipzig have done well in attack; They've scored three times in three of their last five matches. The draw with Bayern ended a six-game winning streak for Leipzig. As they seek to bounce back, their 7-0 loss to City last season will ring fresh in their minds. Leipzig have won two of the last three home matches, with both sides scoring in two.
Manchester City's elimination from the League Cup at the hands of Newcastle United was followed by a league loss. They fell 2-1 to Wolverhampton Wanderers for their first defeat in the Premier League this season. but remain top of the table. City have been unusually shaky lately. They even had to come from behind to beat Red Star Belgrade at home on Match Day 1. In their last five matches they have one clean sheet only, a sign of their falling standards in defense. City have been exposed a bit in conceding first four times in their last five matches. In that run, Pep Guardiola's side lost twice. Both teams scored in three of their last five matches. Three of the five matches also had over 2.5 goals. In their last five Champions League matches, both teams managed to score in three. However, City have only lost twice in 30 group stage matches in the Champions League. Their visits to Germany haven't been very fruitful. City have failed to win in each of their last four matches in Germany. Two of them came against Leipzig. Otne was drawn, the other lost but in the defeat, City had already qualified for the knockout stages and didn't field a full-strength starting line-up.

Leipzig & Manchester City Squad Analysis
Leipzig's injury problems will be their biggest setback when they meet the European champions. Kevin Kampl added to their concerns with a hip injury in the Bayern draw. If he misses this, he will be out alongside Timo Werner and Willi Orban. Dani Olmo, scorer of three goals in the Super Cup meeting, also sits out this one with injury. However, Leipzig have a good forward line, which has Xavi Simons and Emil Forsberg.
Manchester City defender Josko Gvardiol will get to meet his former employers for the first time. Midfielders Kevin de Bruyne and Bernardo Silva are out injured, which compromises their creativity. John Stones is also out injured but they can recall Rodri, who is serving a domestic suspension. Julian Alvarez has been in great form, scoring three in four matches. The Argentine will hope to keep his place in a forward line led by Erling Haalnd.
