Command Analysis

Manchester City kicked off the Champions League with a 2-0 away win over Porto. In the second round, the opponent was much stronger, they failed to beat PSG at home (2:4). In that meeting, the problems in defense were fully manifested: in 32 minutes in the first half, the Parisians scored three unanswered goals, actually secured the victory. It is characteristic that in the Premier League, the townspeople also did not perform their best in defense, conceding two goals from modest Ipswich, although in the end they won 3 in the class.:2. The opponent in that match had possession of the ball for only 30% of the playing time, scored only three shots on target, but scored twice. In the Premier League, Manchester City has not lost a single point in seven rounds played and leads the standings by three points from Arsenal.

Current form
In the first round of the Champions League, AEK delighted the fans with a 1-0 home victory over LASK. It was not possible to build on the success in the second game, although there was a comparable opponent in the class of Shakhtar (1:3). The numbers on the scoreboard do not fully reflect what was on the pitch in London at Stamford Bridge. The game was even, the score was 1-1 until the 80th minute, but the Greeks failed to finish by conceding two goals. After that setback, Marko Nikolic's team stayed in England and were preparing for the upcoming meeting, the national championship game against Atromitos was postponed. In the Superleague, AEK is in fourth place after seven rounds, four points behind the leading Panathinaikos, but has a match in reserve. It should be noted that the defeat against Shakhtar was the first of the season, taking into account all tournaments.

Approximate composition: Brignoli – Rota, Mukudi, Relvas, Pilios – Mayer, Marin, Vitalis, Koita – Varga, Zini.
Tip and bets
Manchester City has a significant advantage in class, plays at home and is unlikely to lose points. However, we still do not expect a complete defeat in the performance of the townspeople. The schedule of performances is tight, Enzo Maresca noted that the leaders were tired. It is likely that the head coach will rotate the squad today. Since the beginning of the season, Manchester City has won only once with a difference of more than two goals, and in recent meetings there have been noticeable problems in defense, two goals conceded by Ipswich.
AEK held the last Champions League match against Shakhtar in London, the team did not return home, the championship game was postponed, there was a purposeful preparation for the match against Manchester City. Since the beginning of the season, the Greeks have suffered only one defeat, taking into account all tournaments, and they have not lost by more than two goals. We believe that the guests will be able to avoid a debacle today.
Our betting tip is for AEK to win with an Asian handicap (+2.5) for a coefficient of 2.05
Bet on the total
Manchester City conceded six goals in the last two matches, and you could constantly see defensive mistakes and ball losses. Since the beginning of the season, the townspeople have exchanged goals with their opponents in four of the six matches played. AEK is capable of scoring its own goal today, but it is unlikely to be able to win back to zero against an opponent with a significant advantage in class.
The second bet is that both will score with a coefficient of 2.20
Betting on corners
Regardless of which team Manchester City plays with, the team relies on total ball control and spends a lot of time attacking other people's goals. It is no coincidence that in 22 of the 28 previous matches, the townspeople won on corners. We do not expect that the AJC will be able to do anything against this indicator.
Prediction – Manchester City win on corners with a handicap (-5.5) with a coefficient of 1.90
