Manchester City vs Borussia Dortmund Preview
This match has quite the potential because there are a lot of good players in both teams. Dortmund has champions league 2021 top scorer Erling Haaland who has scored ten goals in this season of UCL. However, Manchester City is in good form as they are looking to win quadruple this season. They have players like Kevin De Bruyne, Raheem Sterling and Ilkay Gundogan who can turn any game around. However, their strong point in this season has been the solid foundations at the back.
They have conceded just one goal in eight games which is quite extraordinary. The defensive partnership of Ruben Dias and John Stones has been instrumental in 26 games winning run from 27 games in all competitions. In most parts of the season, Manchester City was without their star striker Sergio Aguero due to injuries and coronavirus. However, their wide and midfield players made up for those shortages of goals.
The club has never been able to qualify for the semi-final stage since Pep Guardiola has been made manager of the club. In recent years, they got beaten by unfancied opponents like Lyon, Tottenham and AS Monaco. So, this time the Pep Guardiola side will be looking to make it to the semi-finals stage of UCL.
On the other hand, Dortmund will try to beat the impressive city team and will try to replicate the form that took them to the finals of the 2013 UEFA champions league. They will be without former Manchester City youngster Jadon Sancho who has made quite a name in the Bundesliga. So, all the burden is on Erling Haaland who is looking in great shape and can dismantle the City defense.
