I tend to disagree with folks feeling on Man City and Barca tomorrow. I think one should be in context Barca's away form. Messi was out for several months (at least weeks), then Neymar was out along with several others intermittently. They mainly play in a soft league where they only have 2 real competitors. Real and ATL. My point is they don't really get up for the softer matches and have been taking it rather easy this year while still winning easily all things considered. Yes, they lost to Valencia a couple of weeks ago at home. But that could be exactly what the doctor order with Neymar and Messi 100%. Barca doesn't like the taste of defeat and is looking for a big win. 6-0 against Rayo is nada. They play for the big stage and wake up for champs league. I think they go in strong on both sides of the field and come out 3-1.
I just don't trust Man City at the moment and think they are somewhat lost without their key players. When Messi was out Barca still won but not has easily because they don't have the same confidence without him on the field. The same holds true for Aguero and Manc City yet they didn't win (obviously more so on the road). I just don't see them getting the same chances on net as they do with him. Considering there recent form, I think they are headed in the opposite direction as Barca. Don't forget, even those games where Barca was down, even in the last 10 mins, they were able to come back and punch 1 or 2 in. They can almost score at will. I just think it is hard to pass up Barca in champs league for + money.
That said, Man City - 9-0.
GL with your plays.
PS- I like all four road teams this week. I will be buried by Wednesday afternoon. Until then,
