Match Preview: Manchester City - Monaco

Manchester City will be hoping to go at least to the semi-finals like last season, but will face a very good Monaco team, which is surprisingly the leading team in Ligue 1 and also won their group in the Champions League where they eliminated Tottenham.

Both teams are in good form and this could be a very entertaining match. The main concern for Man City is the injury to their new signing Gabriel Jesus, who had a fantastic start to his Man City career, scoring 3 times before his foot injury, which will keep him out for approximately 2 months.

Predicted Lineups:
Caballero; Sagna, Stones, Otamendi, Kolarov; Yaya Toure, Fernandinho; Silva, De Bruyne, Sterling; Aguero

Subašič; Sidibe, Raggi, Glik, Mendy; Bernardo Silva, Fabinho, Bakayoko, Lemar; Germain, Falcao

Our Prediction:
Monaco are in very good attacking form, especially at home, so Man City will have to make sure they keep them quiet. Expect Pep Guardiola's team to keep a lot of possession and Monaco to play on the counter attack. Result: Man City win 2:0
