City won 2-0 in Budapest during the last set of Champions League fixtures, and this Tuesday sees the home leg which, due to COVID-19 protocols, is also in set to be played in Hungary.

Following a disappointing defeat in the Manchester derby, the Blues have bounced back emphatically and registered convincing wins over Southampton and Fulham last week.

Meanwhile, Monchengladbach are enduring a terrible run and have lost their last six in all competitions, including a 3-1 defeat to Augsburg on Friday.

City made light work of the Bundesliga side last time and could well do the same in the second leg.

Man City v Monchengladbach team news

Man City: Nathan Ake remains the only absentee for Guardiola, although the Dutch defender is expected to return soon.

City went with a three-man backline against Fulham and could do the same in Budapest, while Raheem Sterling, Kevin De Bruyne, Riyad Mahrez and Ilkay Gundogan were all rested for the trip to Craven Cottage.

Monchengladbach: Ramy Bensebaini and Christoph Kramer are doubts for the second leg and unlikely to feature, however, excluding the duo, Marco Rose has a fully fit squad to select from.

The rapid Marcus Thuram could be Monchengladbach's most dangerous outlet on a night where they will most likely look to hit City on the counter attack.

Our prediction: Man City v Monchengladbach

City are in tremendous form and rested several key men at the weekend, so it will take a huge performance from Monchengladbach to turn this one around.

A goal for City on Tuesday means Monchengladbach would need to score at least four on the night to progress, that's against a team that have conceded just once in seven Champions League matches this season.

It seems a bridge too far for the Germans, especially given their form heading into the tie.

Our prediction: Man City 2-0 Monchengladbach (11/2 at bet365)
