Our prediction
Manchester City -1.5 Asian handicap · Asian handicap
We expect City to dictate the game at the Etihad and are going for a win by at least two goals. A one-goal win is not enough. The minimum acceptable odds are 1.75; a shorter price does not offer enough reward for the handicap risk.
