Manchester City - Borussia Dortmund: betting tip (cf 3.50) and bets on the Champions League match

Current form

Since the beginning of the season, Manchester City, which noticeably updated its squad in the summer, has avoided a prolonged recession. Back in August, there were two consecutive defeats in the Premier League from Tottenham and Brighton, but then Josep Guardiola's team went noticeably up in terms of games and results. After those two failures, taking into account all the tournaments, the townspeople played 12 matches and suffered only one defeat from Aston Villa in the Premier League on the road with a score of 0:1.

In the Premier League standings, Manchester City is in second place, six points behind Arsenal, which practically does not allow itself to misfire. Liverpool, Sunderland and Bournemouth are one point behind. Just over the Cherries, they managed to win a confident 3-1 home victory in the last round with a double by Holand, who is clearly at his peak right now and rarely leaves the field without scoring.

Guardiola's players are no less successful in the Champions League, where they have a real chance of finishing in the top 8. After three rounds played, they have seven points and an intermediate seventh place. The only loss of points came against Monaco on the road (2-2), despite the total game advantage in that meeting.
