Value is a thing of perspective, subjective look on the specific game and you are the one who decides, is that worth of the stakes. Here I am giving my trust to Sporting that the Portuguese side can hold City to tight result. In the worst case 1-2 as we have +2.5 line covered. I respect Portuguese champions and their coach Ruben Amorim. However, I am aware of the away team power, however, CL presents them a specific competition.

With 3 championships from the last 4 seasons, Manchester City is doing almost perfectly in the Premier League under coach Pep Guardiola. Only in the Champions League could the club not win a handled pot despite all the investments. Last year, the Skyblues were in the finals, but had to admit defeat there to Chelsea. The Citizens also want to move into this final this season. The English champions face Sporting Lisbon in the round of 16 on Tuesday. On paper and also from the point of view of the bookmakers, this looks like a more than feasible clash for Man City. But in the first season under the ex-Bayern coach, Manchester surprisingly failed in the round of 16 due to outsiders AS Monaco. In addition, Monaco” threw the MCFC out of the European Cup in the round of 16 in the 2011/12 season. Sporting have also played eight times against English clubs in a two-leg knockout phase, each time advancing to the next round. At the other end, the reigning Portuguese Champions League champions have never progressed past the round of 16 and surely they will be motivated to give a 101% because they are without the pressure that City have on their backs. Sporting have a great coach, a good season behind, and a decent current season. Surely that Portuguese vs Spanish coach clash is a background battle and Amorim, Sporting coach, will see this game as the most challenging in his life. City seems unbeatable in a moment, but that doesn't mean they will win every game with 3+ difference.

This will be 2legs clash, the first one is in Portugal. Portuguese champions can score at least 1 goal here because they have very fast players up front and City backline is one of the highest position in the world looking on heatmaps under Guardiola. There will be at least 3-5 good chances for Sporting to convert it to goals and who knows, maybe the first game can bring the surprise. A result 1-2 comes to my mind but wouldn't be either too surprised to see 2-2 too as this is 2 legs match format.

本场比赛我相信葡萄牙体育，相信葡萄牙球队可以让曼城保持紧张的状态。在最坏的情况下以 1-2 输球。我尊重葡萄牙冠军和他们的教练鲁本·阿莫林。然而，我知道客队的实力，欧冠是他们的主要目标。

在过去 4 个赛季中获得 3 个冠军，曼城在主教练瓜迪奥拉的带领下在英超联赛中的表现几乎完美。尽管投入了很多，俱乐部也只有在冠军联赛中才能证明他们的投资是成功的。去年蓝月亮进入了决赛，但输给了切尔西。曼城肯定想进入本赛季的决赛，他们将在周二的 16 强赛中迎战里斯本竞技。从纸面上看，这对曼来说似乎是一场非常好的机会。在前拜仁主帅执教的第一个赛季，曼城出人意料地被摩纳哥淘汰出16强。此外，摩纳哥在 2011/12 赛季的 16 强中将曼联淘汰出局。在两回合的淘汰赛阶段，葡萄牙体育还与英格兰球队交手了八次，每次都晋级到了下一轮。另一方面，葡萄牙联赛的卫冕冠军从未晋级过16强，他们肯定会有动力付出101%的努力，因为他们没有曼城背负的压力。葡萄牙体育有一位出色的教练，度过了一个出色的赛季。葡萄牙体育教练阿莫林将这场比赛视为他一生中最具挑战性的一场比赛。曼城似乎很难被无法击败，但这并不意味着他们会以三球以上的差距赢得每场比赛。

这将是两回合的交锋，第一场在葡萄牙。葡萄牙冠军在这里至少可以进 1 球，因为他们的前场球员速度非常快，而曼城后防线是世界上排名最贵的球员之一。葡萄牙体育至少有 3-5 次将球转化为进球的好机会，也许第一场比赛就能带来惊喜。我预测结果 1-2，但看到 2-2的结果 也不会太惊讶，因为这是两回合的比赛。预测葡萄牙体育最多输一个球。
