RB Leipzig hosts Manchester City in round 6 of the Champions League group stage. The match will be played on Tuesday, December 7th at Red Bull Arena (Leipzig)
RB Leipzig still could not fully compensate for the losses incurred in the offseason. Of course, there are questions for Jesse Marsch, and there are quite a few of them. He clearly achieves weaker results than Julian Nagelsmann, bought by Bayern Munich. But do not forget how many players left the camp of the Bulls. In winter, they may lose some more, as Rangnick allegedly plans to strengthen Manchester United with the performers he knows very well. At the same time, RB Leipzig needs to compensate for the failures on the football pitches. The club has only 18 points after 14 Bundesliga matches and is outside the European competition zone. And in the Champions League, the Bulls have already lost all chances of making it to the playoffs. Nevertheless, they should fight in the upcoming match as well. They cannot show a result worse than that of Club Brugge KV in a parallel match, so as not to return to 4th place. Therefore, it is desirable for RB Leipzig to gain at least a draw against the Citizens. But will the German club have enough strength to do it?

Manchester City traditionally fights for all possible trophies. And as in the previous season, there were certain problems at the start. Without a sensible striker, sometimes the club couldn’t even score. But Pep Guardiola eventually found a recipe for how to compensate for this shortcoming. And the Citizens managed to show progress in the Champions League. In the first round, they lost to PSG in Paris in the "battle of the moneybags". But they took revenge on them in November, having gained a comeback victory at home. By the way, the manager of Manchester City decided to field Zinchenko in that match, and he unexpectedly played in the midfield and not on the left flank in defense. However, that decision was not very successful: it was Oleksandr who was replaced first, and the character victory was gained without him. Now the team from Manchester has 12 points, and it will remain the leader of the quartet after the last round. Well, Guardiola has a chance to rest the leaders ahead of the home match against Wolverhampton. Should we wait for Zinchenko again?
These clubs crossed paths for the first time only in this draw. And the Germans will remember their trip to Manchester for a long time, as they lost with a score of 3-6. The bookmakers believe that Manchester City players have a good chance of winning again. But RB Leipzig also needs to fight for points, so we look forward to another spectacular match. We bet on Over 3.0 goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Over 3.0 goals scored
