ATLETICO MADRID, TOTTENHAM AND MAN CITY ALL TO WIN AT 7/2 MAX BET £10!
Recent Form
It was an impressive performance from Man City to bounce back from their defeat to Wolves last weekend to beat an inspired Crystal Palace outfit. That result meant they reduced the gap at the head of the table from eight points to six after Jurgen Klopp’s men were held at Old Trafford.
However, you get the feeling that although Pep Guardiola will have wanted to close that gap, it is the Champions League that he’ll really want to win for the fans and will be the true measure of success for the club this term.
Atalanta had to settle for a draw away at Lazio this weekend, but no doubt this will be a much tougher task.
Having failed to pick up a single point from their opening two European encounters at Dinamo Zagreb and hosting Shakhtar Donetsk, losing them by an aggregate scoreline of 6-1, another defeat could be fatal to their chances of a Champions League knockout spot or even a Europa League run for that matter.
Indeed, this is the first time they’ve earnt a place in Europe’s elite competition, although it doesn’t seem to have affected their results domestically as they currently sit in third place in Serie A, behind both Inter and Juventus.
Guardiola opted to use midfielders Fernandinho and Rodri as his centre-back partnership on Saturday afternoon, which actually worked in their favour as once ahead, their ability to play keep ball was unprecedented.
However, John Stones made an appearance from the bench in that fixture and could well make a start, while Nicolas Otamendi could also return.

Guardiola will be unlikely to use the two returning specialists in the position together based upon past performances alongside each other, but one or the other may come back in and it seems the Citizens will have a pairing that is capable of shutting up shop whichever combination the manger goes for.
The Italian side may currently be the top scorers in their domestic league, but coach Gian Piero Gasperini will be furious that his goalscoring machine Divan Zapata has been ruled out for this encounter following his injury on international duty.
With seven goals and three assists so far this term, the Colombian international has been involved in 45% out their 22 goals across all competitions, including their solitary strike in this tournament and without him they will certainly struggle.
By contrast, the hosts are yet to concede in Group C and have won to nil in 14 of their last 19 encounters at Etihad Stadium dating back to January, and look a big price to do so again given the circumstances.
