Champions League

odds 1.86

Only in one of the last six matches Borussia failed to score in the second half of the meeting. Only in one of the last three matches of the Champions League the Norwegian forward has not scored. In their last three away games, Manchester City have scored all of their goals in the second half.

Borussia Dortmund

After an impressive winning streak of eight victories, Denver slowed down a bit. In last two matches, the Nuggets have lost to Boston (87-105) and Golden State (107-116). Despite this, they retained their positions. Mike Malone’s charges are still in fourth place in the Western Conference. It is worth noting that Denver are considered the home team. The Nuggets are doing great on their own this season, having won 18 of their 28 games. Incidentally, this is the fourth indicator in the West.

Manchester City

Manchester City have a very confident season. Pep Guardiola’s team have not experienced any problems in the Champions League group, beating Porto, Olympiacos and Marseille. The first rival in the playoffs was Borussia from Moenchengladbach, which at the time of the confrontation was in an open crisis and lost 0:4 on aggregate without a chance. Manchester City had no problems with Borussia Dortmund until 84 minutes, but the rapid attack of the Bumblebees and the goal of Marco Reus made the task more difficult. Nevertheless, the townspeople managed to score again before the final whistle. A 2:1 victory is not sure, but the Englishmen already have a definite advantage. In the Premier League, Manchester City lead the table with 74 points and are the main contender for the title, if not the only one. The second Manchester United is 11 points away, but still has a game in hand, but it will be almost impossible to win back even eight points. In the last round “Manchester City” sensationally lost 1:2 at home to “Leeds”, having a numerical advantage. The mentor of the townspeople involved a serious rotation, making seven changes in comparison with the fight with Borussia, which affected the result.

Prediction

Our expert pick: Borussia did not show their best football in the first leg, but took advantage of one of the few chances, leaving themselves a chance to pass. Today the Bumblebees will be in a more comfortable environment and will definitely be more active in the attack, which consistently upsets the opponents with goals. Undoubtedly, Manchester City has an advantage in experience and class, but it is unlikely that the townspeople will take risks and rush to the attack outright, rather an experienced club from Manchester will play according to the result. Thus, it is hardly worth counting on a major victory for the favorite. We believe that owners cannot lose. Prediction is Asian handicap (+1) against Borussia. In bookmaker 1xBet such an outcome is offered with odds of 1.86. Borussia has a very powerful line of attack led by Erling Holann, able to squeeze the most out of a few moments. The situation obliges the "bumblebees" to play actively in the attack and they are quite capable of playing their own goal. However, Manchester City are unlikely to leave the opponent's attempts to recoup unanswered. The townspeople score a lot and consistently, so in this meeting it makes sense to count on the exchange of goals. Our second bet will be both to score. This bet can be placed for 1.62.
