Hello members of the world of football community to my first post after being validated as a member of this community by our able administrators.
This is my match preview to the champions league second league tie between Manchester City and Paris Saint Germain.
Match Preview.
Following Manchester City's incredible second half display to earn them the victory in the first leg, they now head into this game with the advantage over Pochetinno's men.
These sides have both never won this prestigious title and are both favourites to win it this year. But there's no doubt Manchester City are the better favourites now. All football fans know Pep Guardiola doesn't joke when it comes to titles but his men won't have a walk over PSG. Both teams will have to be at their best to qualify for the finals.
PSG still have the quality to shock Man City with the likes of Di Maria, Mbappe, Neymar, Marquinhos, etc. so it's unwise to think they can't make it to the finals.
Predicted Line Ups.
Manchester City;
Ederson, Jao Cancello, Stones, Dias, Walker, Gundogan, Rodri, Kevin De Bruyne, Foden, Mahrez, Jesus.
Paris Saint Germain;
Navas, Diallo, Kimpembe, Marquinhos, Florenzi, Verratti, Paredes, Gueye, Neymar, Mbappe, Di Maria.
Key Men.
Man City; Kevin De Bruyne
The City talisman would be looking to create goal scoring opportunities for his team mates and for himself after his impressive display last week wednesday.
He could even be used as a false nine who knows.
PSG; Mbappe
With 8 goals in the champions League, he would be looking to cause City's defence problems especially since he couldn't get a goal in the first leg.
Venue and Kick off time.
This game would be played in the Etihad stadium in England and will kick off at 19:00.
Match Prediction.
I expect this game to be very difficult for either teams that could end up going into extra time but I don't see City throwing this away.
Score Prediction: Man City 2- Paris Saint Germain 1
