💰 Manchester City vs. Al Ain FC prediction & best bet

City's opening 2-0 victory over Wydad AC was more comfortable than the scoreline suggested. They should have been up three or four at the interval but rued some missed sitters. Guardiola didn't start Erling Haaland or Rodri, both of whom came on in the final third of the match. 

They should start on Sunday.

While I'm not comparing Juventus to Manchester City, there were some key takeaways from the Old Lady's 5-0 demolition of Al Ain.

The Asian champions were second-best throughout and struggled defensively in all facets, particularly in the air and with Juvents' quick interchanging. 

That's an ominous proposition with Haaland lurking. City will be focused on being more clinical in front of the goal, which Haaland should also help with. Al Ain will give it everything, but the discernible class gulf should be apparent throughout.

I expect a 3-0 City victory, with Haaland to score at least one if he starts. DraftKings offers the longest odds of our best sports betting apps, and a winning $10 bet will yield an $8.47 profit.
