Command Analysis
Manchester City
EnglandCurrent form
Manchester City have not lost in 26 matches in a row in the Champions League. During this time, there were 18 wins and eight draws. However, in the last round of the main European club tournament, the impressive series was interrupted, and with a bang. With a score of 1:4 on the road, the Citizens suffered a crushing defeat from Sporting. However, if this was only one failure, then nothing terrible would have happened - any series is interrupted at some point. Another thing is that, taking into account all the tournaments, the team has already lost five times in a row. It is definitely not possible to talk about an accident against such a background.
During their unsuccessful period, https://www.mancity.com target=_blank rel=noopener>Manchester City lost twice to Tottenham - in the League Cup (1:2) and in the Premier League this weekend at home (0:4). There were also unsuccessful matches in the Premier League with Bournemouth and Brighton - defeats with the same score of 1:2. As a result, in the league table, Josep Guardiola charges still hold the second line after 12 rounds, but are eight points behind the leader Liverpool. In the Champions League, thanks to seven points scored in the opening three rounds, the Citizens are in tenth place.
It is difficult to say for sure about the reasons for such a serious decline. However, it seems that the losses of Rodri and De Bruyne in the center of the field have an effect. As it turned out, even taking into account the decent depth of the squad, the role of these players was very decent. The Belgian seems to have recovered, perhaps we will see him on the field today, the day before he came on as a substitute against Tottenham.
Disqualifications and injuries
Defender Ruben Dias and midfielders Mateo Kovacic, Oscar Bobb and Rodri Hernandez will be out due to injuries.
Interesting trends for betting
- At least three goals have been scored in normal time in 11 of Manchester City last 14 Champions League games
- In only one of the previous five matches did the Citizens win in the first half
- In seven of Manchester City last ten Champions League games, both teams have scored goals
Probable line-up: Ederson - Walker, Akanji, Stones, Guardiol - Silva, Lewis, Gundogan - Foden, Haaland, Savinho.
Feyenoord
NetherlandsCurrent form
Feyenoord can generally put the results of four rounds in the Champions League down as an asset. The team has six points and an interim 21st place. For a solid European mid-table team, everything is pretty good. It is characteristic that the "pride of the south" poses the greatest threat to its opponents on the road: all six points were earned at other stadiums. They managed to beat Girona (3:2) and Benfica (3:1). At the same time, the team failed to cope with Bayer (0:4) and Salzburg (1:3) at home.
Brian Priske men are traditionally strong in attack - they have scored goals in three of their four Champions League matches. However, they have been constantly failing in defence - they have never kept a clean sheet in the Champions League.
In the Eredivisie, Feyenoord did not have the best start to the season, but in the last five rounds they have won four times. These results have allowed them to rise to fourth place, with the gap to second-placed Utrecht being only three points. In the two previous rounds, they have won against Almere City (4:1) and Heerenveen (3:0). Once again, we cannot ignore the powerful attacking play – 31 goals scored, only the leading PSV have more.
Disqualifications and injuries
Oueda, Osman and Bueno will be out with injuries. Nadje will serve a suspension. The appearance of Baylow, Jimenez, Lotomba and Timber is questionable.
Interesting trends for betting
- Feyenoord have lost in the first half in three of their last five matches
- Feyenoord have not drawn in their last 23 Champions League matches
- Seven of Feyenoord last nine Champions League games have featured goal exchanges
Probable line-up: Wellenreuther - Ried, Trauner, Ganzko, Smal - Hwang, Zerrouki, Milambo - Hadj Moussa, Carranza, Paixao.

3.30Tip and bets
Manchester City are approaching the upcoming game on a five-game losing streak, but bookmakers still consider them clear favourites. Undoubtedly, the losing streak will be broken, perhaps this time too, but there are no particular prerequisites for this, judging by the game against Tottenham the day before. The Citizens allow their opponents too much, first of all, at their goal. Feyenoord is traditionally strong in attack, and is unlikely to close in defence, while the visitors are capable of scoring their own goal. At the same time, despite a five-game losing streak, Manchester City scored goals in four matches, and there were plenty of chances in the last game against Spurs. We believe that the best bet would be the option with an exchange of goals scored.
Our prediction is both teams to score at odds of 1.93
Bet on the outcome
Given Manchester City recent failures, it would be logical to bet on the underdog. Moreover, Feyenoord is currently in good shape, having confidently dealt with inferior opponents in the last two rounds of the national championship, the visitors can easily avoid a major defeat.
The second bet is Feyenoord victory with an Asian handicap (+1.5) with odds of 2.40
Bet on corners
Let take a look at the promising trend in corners. Feyenoord last seven Champions League matches have seen at least 10 corners, and we expect the same to happen today.
Forecast - total corners over 9.5 with odds of 1.70
