RB Leipzig have already suffered two 4-1 defeats in their opening three Champions League group games, and now they prepare to host one of the favourites to win the competition, Manchester City.
The Citizens have won two and lost one of their opening three European outings, claiming a 2-0 win in Porto and a 5-1 victory at home to AEK Athens. The visitors were thrashed 4-2 in their own backyard by the current champions PSG, but still head into Wednesday's clash with RB Leipzig as the clear favourites.
The hosts have managed to score exactly one goal in each of their opening three group games, and while that proved enough to defeat PSV on matchday two, they shipped four goals in their other two matches against Como and Real Madrid.
Manchester City have only managed to keep one clean sheet in their opening three Champions League fixtures, but last time out against AEK Athens the English side showed their quality in the final third by scoring five goals.
Taking all of the above into contention, we're backing Manchester City to win and for both teams to score in Leipzig. We're also predicting plenty of goals in this game and have backed over 3.5 to be scored before the final whistle blows.
Two of both clubs' opening three matches in this competition have witnessed over 3.5 goals, and City have scored nine goals during that period, while RB Leipzig have only registered three goals, hence our final scoreline prediction of 4-1 in the visitor's favour.
RB Leipzig 1-4 Manchester City
