Last year the meeting of teams pleased the lovers of goals, while losing with a score of 0:2. In that game the citizens managed to pull themselves together and snatch the victory. Today the situation in the home team leaves much to be desired. The reigning champions are five points behind Arsenal, having played one match more. In addition, they face a serious charge of 100 financial Fair Play violations from the Premier League, which only aggravates the morale of the players. Josep Guardiola said that the trip to London is tedious, which was proved by the last visit and the defeat against Tottenham (0:1), which did not allow to close the gap from the leader. Moreover, the coach will have no excuses as his team is playing their 250th game at the Etihad Stadium in the Premier League. Today Foden, Stones and Mendy, who is not yet in shape, will not be able to enter the football field.
A 2:4 home loss to the highly motivated Leicester City put an end to the team’s Premier League run. With the defending champion, the situation is more unpleasant, given that the Lions have won only once in 29 fights in this arena. In addition, this success came in 2009, when Villains won every third away match. For 21 rounds of the current championship of the Premier League of England, the guests have eight victories and four peaceful outcomes, which corresponds to 28 points and 11th position in the table. The attack played poorly, which differed only 25 times, while before the fiasco in the last game, the team defeated Southampton (1:0). In the infirmary of the Traore team are Diego Carlos, Steer and Traore, who has a knee injury. More soccer win predictions can be obtained from the link provided.
