Every season Basel claim for the champion’s title of the Swiss Super League, however, the club is doing not so well on the European level. The side occupied the second place in Group A of the UEFA Champions League with 12 points collected after six matchdays conducted, having competed with Manchester United, CSKA Moscow and Benfica in it. The club’s offense looked rather decent with 11 scored goals just like its defense which has conceded five goals. In the recent clashes conducted on the road Basel have gained 0:2 defeat from Young Boys 0:2 together with two victories over Thun and Grasshoppers with the same 2:0 scoreline.
The first-leg tackle Manchester City deserve a confident 4:0 triumph. At this moment Basel have tiny chances for promoting to the next round of the tournament as “The Citizens” are unlikely to lose such advantage.
Prediction for the match: Manchester City to win with -2.0 Asian handicap.
