Manchester City had a solid first half of the season. The team won the group stage in the Champions League, where they determined PSG and even the defeat in the last game from RB Leipzig (1:2) could not spoil the mood of the team’s fans. No luck in the Super Bowl and the English League Cup, where the Mancunians failed. In the last game, Manchester City beat Swindon Town 4:1 away and with this success opened their way to the FA Cup, which the team last won in 2019. In the English Championship today the current champion is confidently leading and is not yet ready to give up the leading position. The gap from today’s opponent is ten points. The last failure in the Premier League for the “citizens” is dated October 30th, after which Pep Guardiola’s wards won all the matches. In the last two rounds the Celestials defeated Brentford (1:0) and Arsenal (2:1). It is impossible not to note the excellent performance of the team in the attack line, which differed 53 times, which corresponds to the number of points scored. Delap, Zinchenko, Mendy and Stones will not be able to enter the field today.
Freiburg started the season very successfully, having suffered their first defeat already in the 11th round, losing 1:2 to Bayern. The team of Christian Streich managed to gain a foothold in the top four without any problems and it still does not give up its position, despite all the forecasts about a possible decline. With 30 points, the Griffins occupy the fourth line in the table, but they do not have a serious advantage over their competitors. Fifth Bayer is one point away. Cologne and Union are two points below, Eintracht and Leipzig also claim for the fourth place. Freiburg lost its advantage due to the loss of points in the last matches. In the last four rounds, the “griffins” won only one victory, beating Bayer with a score 2:1, another mistake could result in relegation from the Champions League zone.
