Manchester City take on the visitors Stoke City in the round 28 match of English Premier League. The game will be played on Wednesday, March 8th at Etihad Stadium (Manchester).
The hosts of the match are obvious favorites but the visiting side have all chances to offer the Citizens a battle. Pep Guardiola had a long road before he figured out what is the best combination on the pitch and what formation suite his players the best. The team is currently on four-match winning streak in all competitions and it allowed them to move up on third place in the league. Of course, their triumph is the most probable outcome but it’s hard to expect them to show their full strength in league clash with mid-table side.

The City won recent three league games but none of them were taken by more than two goals. These wins were taken in clash with teams from the bottom of the standings like Sunderland, Bournemouth and Swansea, all four a below 14th place. Stoke City are currently ninth and they deserve even better place if it wasn’t for slow start of the season.
Stoke can be proud of their recent results as the team has recorded only two defeats in their last 20 matches by more than two goals. These losses were suffered in clashes with Liverpool and Tottenham. At the same time, they didn’t allow to win by more than two goals to such teams as Everton, Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal. So, we should expect the visitors to be a worthy opponent tonight at Etihad stadium.
Prediction for the match: Stoke City to win with +2.0 Asian handicap.
