Manchester City vs RB Leipzig Football Preview
When you analyse this game, it is truly a tale of two seasons.
Manchester City are flying high, they’ve started tremendously after a poor start against Spurs, and they head to the Etihad with bags of confidence for the season ahead, and in particular the next 90 minutes.
Pep Guardiola’s men have been scoring for fun, and conceding next to none in the Premier League so far this year. They’re ahead of the curve against teams who try to shut them down, and the way to beat this time is to go out to win, as Spurs showed us this year.
But we don’t expect that to be the gameplan from Leipzig.
Leipzig have made a poor start to their Bundesliga season, to put it bluntly. They have won just one of their four fixtures so far, and were hammered by Bayern Munich in one of the three games that they lost. To rub salt in the wounds, their old manager was in the opposite dugout for that game, after they had their squad ruined over the summer and Julian Nagelsmann left for the bigger club.
After taking losses in the Bundesliga, and struggling to find any form, the last place these lads want to be heading to is the Etihad Stadium.
We’ve taken a look at some of the best odds for the big game.
Manchester City vs RB Leipzig Football odds
There is a pretty considerable gulf between these two teams – if you believe the oddsmakers. The visitors are priced at a massive 37/4 to get a win, while the hosts are heavy favourites at 2/7 to get their first three points on the board. The draw is 9/2, and definitely something to keep an eye on
Manchester City vs RB Leipzig Football betting tips
Odds are correct at the time of publication and are subject to change.
Manchester City win to zero – 23/20
This isn’t a massive market, but from what we’ve seen this season, Man City are fantastic both in front of goal and at the back, while RB Leipzig are far from the world beaters they may have looked in previous seasons. We’d be backing a flawless performance from the Premier League champions, who have likely pulled ahead in recent years of the German side.
Jack Grealish to score anytime – 9/5
We’re going to be backing this market a lot throughout the season, particularly once he starts hitting the scoresheet as much as his price tag would indicate he should. Leipzig, from what we have seen in the Bundesliga thus far, should be the perfect team to play against for Grealish.
