I think this can be the most important season for Manchester City to become the champions in this tournament. Because they have Haaland from now on and his performance so far has been amazingly effective. He was like a missing piece of a puzzle for the team. Now they have an insane level of scoring strength. Bayern Munich can have quite difficulties in defending especially him.
Of course Manchester City aren't just about Haaland. They have a really solid team play and the first leg is in Etihad as well. Manchester City have a significant advantage which is how it seems to me now. Bookmakers don't see a huge difference so the odds are really close. But I'm still choosing Manchester City to bet on here. It might not be a very comfortable one maybe but they can still win this one.

Guardiola has chased this very title for many years and has always been faced with near success syndrome. Let us be hopeful that things can turn around this season.
If not then the matter between Guardiola and Toure Yaya which led to some alleged curses should be revisited as not ordinary
There are a lot of specialties concerning the match between Manchester City and Bayern Munich. It is the duel between Tuchel and Guardiola and Tuchel has beaten him once in a Champions League final, hence Guardiola is looking for revenge.
But also Guardiola having been a coach for Bayern Munich is interesting. As some players have said he is the best strategist ever and knows all the weaknesses of the opponent. Probably even more so of Bayern Munich although a lot might have changed ever since.
I expect a very dominant Manchester City in that game. Bayern Munich will be more busy defending than attacking this time.
