Basel will host Manchester City at St Jakob-Park in the first leg of the Champions League last 16 of 2017/18 on Wednesday (14/2). Basel have beaten Manchester red, and now they will try out the strength of blue Manchester.

In the group phase this season, Basel bend Manchester United 1-0 through Michael Lang single goal in Switzerland on Matchday 5. Raphael Wicky's team finally finished second as Group A by three points behind United.

The result of drawing the big 16 brought together Basel with other Manchester teams. This time, the level of difficulty can be spelled out differently.

City now lead the Premier League standings with a 16 point net advantage over United in second place. Excellence was obtained after last weekend Josep Guardiola troop eliminate Leicester 5-1, while United defeated 0-1 against Newcastle.

City has a quality squad. If there is one player who really should be wary of the Basel defense, then it is Sergio Aguero.

Seeing the superior quality of Man City, I believe Man City will win this match.
