Live on Skysports 2: Weds 19.45: Man City are outsiders at 11/5 (Betfred) to beat Real Madrid in the Champions League but they could edge it.
Manchester City simply have to beat Real Madrid to stand any chance of reaching the knockout stages of the Champions League but bookies are siding with Jose Mourinho’s men at the Etihad Stadium, where the visitors are Ladbrokes’ 5/4 favourites and a City success is as high as 11/5 with Betfred.
Bwin post 29/10 against the draw and that will attract cash as both of the hosts home matches in Group D have finished all square, but after they warmed up with a 5-0 thumping of Aston Villa on Saturday to move to the top of the Premier League, Roberto Mancini’s troops will be in confident mood and the pressure if off them to an extent as their chances of progression have effectively been written off.
That could play into City’s hands and they look decent value at 9/2 (Stan James) to finally show what they could in this competition by picking up a victory by a one-goal margin.
BetVictor meanwhile, price Mancini’s charges at 11/1 to finish on the right side of a 2-1 scoreline and in attack, having bagged four goals in three outings for City, Sergio Aguero is the first scorer pick at a generous 7/1 via William Hill.
Recommended Bets:
Man City to beat Real Madrid by a one-goal margin – 9/2 (Stan James)
Sergio Aguero to score first – 7/1 (William Hill)
