A number of Champions League fixtures have seen their venues moved due to coronavirus restrictions and City will hope the shift weighs in their favour here.

City come into this tie having won their last 18 games in all competitions in a run stretching back to mid-December.

Monchengladbach, meanwhile, are winless in their last three outings – a streak that has seen them drop to eighth in the Bundesliga.

Boss Marco Rose will be hoping for a response on Wednesday when his troops face one of the favourites to win the competition, and even a draw inside the Puskas Arena would be seen as a good result.

Monchengladbach v Man City team news

Mamadou Doucoure will miss the game due to a lack of match fitness. Alassane Plea is likely to lead the line.

Man City: Nathan Ake remains manager Pep Guardiola’s sole absentee through injury, so expect a strong XI to rock up in Budapest on Wednesday.

Guardiola could opt to keep Sergio Aguero on the bench and trust in Raheem Sterling, Gabriel Jesus and Phil Foden up top. Riyad Mahrez may also start.

Our prediction: Monchengladbach v Man City

City’s squad is now back to near-full strength and the likes of Kevin De Bruyne and Sterling could control this game from the off.

The difficulty for Monchengladbach is how to contain City and also cause danger themselves, especially if Thuram misses this encounter.

Indeed, it looks almost certain that City will extend their winning streak and hope to get this two-legged tie in the bag by the halfway stage. Guardiola’s troops should be on cruise control here.

Our prediction: Monchengladbach 0-3 Man City (15/2 at bet365)
