In the return match of the knockout stages of the Champions League, Manchester City hosts RB Leipzig from 9 p.m. (a match to follow on FM). On the way to Germany, the two teams ended in a draw (1-1), with Mahrez opening the scoring for the English and Gvardiol equalizing for the Germans. Qualification for the quarter-finals therefore remains open.
For this decisive match, Pep Guardiola can count on a full squad. Stones is aligned to the right of the defense with Aké on the left and Akanji and Dias in the middle. Replacing at Palace, De Bruyne finds his place in the middle. In front, Haaland is supported by Bernardo Silva and Grealish. Conversely, Marco Rose is deprived of important players such as goalkeeper Gulacsi, Schlager midfielder and French striker Nkunku. The German coach therefore almost renews the victorious team of Mönchengladbach (3-0) this weekend with one exception. Kampl replaces André Silva in the eleven.
The official compositions:
Manchester City: Ederson – Stones, Akanji, Dias, Aké – De Bruyne, Rodri, Gundogan – Bernardo Silva, Haaland, Grealish.
Leipzig: Blaswich–Henrichs, Orban, Gvardiol, Raum–Kampl, Laimer, Haidara–Szoboszlai, Werner, Forsberg.
