Tuesday, starting at 20:00, the Manchester City – Schalke 04 game will be played, within the finals of the Champions League final round, the 2018-2019 edition.
Manchester City won both direct disputes, including a 3-2 draw in Germany, through the goals scored by Aguero, Sane and Sterling, respectively Bentaleb (2).
The champion of England is in a series of 9 consecutive wins in all competitions. In the last round of the Premier League, “Citizens” defeated Watford, score 3-1 after a 0-0 table break. Sterling scored a triple and led Manchester City in first place, 74 points, 4 away from Liverpool, which has a less played match. Guardiola’s team escaped through Gelsenkirchen’s “needle ears”, winning 3-2 in the final, in numerical inferiority.
Schalke 04 was not able to take advantage of the fact that Otamendi was eliminated in the 68th minute, but gave a surprisingly good football to the champion of England. The “Miners” have not won 7 games since the 4-1 win in the German Cup, with Fortuna Dusseldorf. Domenico Tedesco’s “pupils” have received 11 goals since defeating Manchester City, but have proven to be able to score against any opponent and the English must remain focused.
Guardiola has proposed a more cautious football than regular “river” scores. City scored only 5 goals in the previous 4 games. On the opposite side, Schalke 04 remains a band that does not teach lightly and can mark Etihad.
PREDICTION: Both teams to score / NO @ 1,72
