Monaco vs Manchester City Betting Tips, Correct Score Prediction and Suggested Bet Builders

AS Monaco host Manchester City in the Champions League this evening following their poor start to the League Phase last week.

The Ligue 1 outfit welcome their opponents to their city knowing they must dramatically improve from last week’s opening result.

Monaco were hammered away from home 4-1 by Club Brugge and their domestic fixtures have also brought inconsistencies after defeat to Lorient followed a 5-2 victory over Metz.

Adi Hütter’s side welcome Pep Guardiola and his players to Stade Louis II with the Citizens having started their campaign in both Europe and the Premier League in relatively decent form.

They just thrashed Burnley 5-1 and saw off Scudetto holders Napoli on matchday one of the Champions League and travel in confident mood even if some tactics have been questioned at times.

Football betting sites lean towards City, who are 4/11 odds-on favourites, with the draw at 4/1 and the hosts out at 11/2 for a home win.

Monaco vs Manchester City: Correct Score Prediction

As mentioned, Monaco are not in the best of form and their consistency has escaped them.

They also shipped four goals in UCL last week to a side – on paper – not as strong as City who square off with them this evening.

If City can get motoring, a 3-0 away win (priced at 10/1) looks a tempting play.

Monaco vs Manchester City Bet Builder Tips

Here are three picks that make sense for Sunday’s showdown:

Haaland anytime scorer @ 8/15

The big Norwegian became the quickest player to reach 50 Champions League goals recently and if you think he won’t then want to be the fastest to another milestone, you’re mad.

He has nine goals from just seven outings this season so far in all competitions and is excellent value to find the net again.

No BTTS @ 13/8

City have only conceded six goals in their Premier League fixtures so far which is good going considering two of those matches alone saw them lose four of those goals.

Monaco may feel the pressure in front of their crowd but ironically that could force the issue and create an unnecessary pressure.

A comfortable win for City at odds of 13/8 opens up a possible Treble.

Man City/Man City Half-time/Full-time @ Evens

If City can win the game as convincingly as we suspect they might, they shall have to get off to a strong start.

Doing that would set them up to win both halves and at even money, it could be worth a flutter as part of a larger bet.

Rodri is doubtful for this one while City will be without Omar Marmoush, Abdukodir Khusanov and Rayan Cherki.

Lamine Camara, Denis Zakaria and Aleks Golovkin are out for the home side.
