During the Champions League competition, Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola seem to use the 4-3-3 strategy more often with Erling Haaland and Riyad Mahrez as the favorite striker since the group phase. While, Bayern Munich, 4-2-3-1 became coach Julian Nagelsmann's favorite formation
I think in the quarter-finals the two coach will make a few changes from usual, considering this will be the first meet between Manchester City and Bayern Munich during the 2022-23 Champions League season
Pep Guardiola coached Bayern Munich for several seasons before moving to Manchester City. I think Pep knows and understands the characteristics of several Bayern Munich players well and it is an advantage for Pep to find the right strategy.
To be honest talking about strategy Pep had better not try that his recent back 3 with an inverted left back where bernardo silva is not a natural left back because even against burnely they were so vulnerable when they loss possesion and bayern players have the pace and skill set to punish them they better stick to 4-3-2-1. But how come nobody is talking about Chelsea and Madrid game Real madrid are usually underperforming against a weak opposition and Chelsea shouldnt be written off if they decide to go on a low block and capitalize on a counter i think they stand a chance to go through.
