Our Expert Predictions & Analysis on Monaco vs Manchester City

Monaco

Monaco got off to a poor start in the new Champions League main round, suffering a crushing defeat away to Club Brugge. From the very first matchday, the team put itself in a difficult position, finding itself playing catch-up and dropping points against an opponent they should have played much better against. Adolf Hütter's men face another tough European matchup, as one of the tournament's favorites will be visiting. The hosts will be looking to perform much better at home than in the first leg, despite their underdog status.

Manchester City

The Citizens comfortably defeated Napoli 2-0 at home in the first round of the Champions League, but Pep Guardiola's men were greatly helped by an early red card. Nevertheless, Manchester City picked up three important points, improved their English Premier League form, and advanced to the League Cup, meaning the team's players will be in good spirits heading into their next European fixture. It's crucial for the Citizens to secure a spot in the knockout stages as quickly as possible, meaning they'll be looking to secure as many points as possible in the opening rounds of the Champions League.

Game Totals Prediction

Manchester City is rightly considered the favorite in their away match against Monaco in the second round of the Champions League, as the difference in skill between these opponents is quite obvious. The teams have had different starts to the new tournament, and the home team will certainly be trying to improve their performance and secure their first points. However, the quality of the City players should play a key role in such a match, and the most logical choice seems to be a modest bet on a Manchester City victory at 1.69.
