Manchester City Borussia Dortmund betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match is that Manchester City will win and that there will be several goals. Not only do the home side boast clearly superior individual attributes, but they also face an opponent who has shown weaknesses in his playing model, especially in the centre of defence. Everything points to the Citizens' superiority being felt on the pitch, culminating in a categorical victory.
