Manchester City (4-3-3) faces Olimpique Lion (3-5-2) at the Estadio Jose Alvalade in Lisbon in the Quarter-finals of UEFA Champions League 2019/20 on Saturday 15 August 2020 at 21:00.
Manchester City beat Real Madrid in previous game, and now they are looking forward to do the same thing against their next rivals, French team Olympique Lion. It's strange to say, but in previous game they were the underdogs, since they have faced the most crowned team of all, and no matter that, they beat them for the second time. They should better focus now on their next game, since they are going to face the team, who on the card seams weaker, that took out the Italian champions Juventus in previous round.
Their task in this match against French team is quite clear, as they simply need to win this game if they wan't to continue their road to the Finals. Their coach Josep Pep Guardiola will count on one of his best defenders, Aymeric Laporte, just like he did in previous game against Real Madrid, to try to stop as much Olympique Lion's attacks as he can. In this match Pep Guardiola will also count on his midfielders, starting from Belgian playmaker Kevin de Bruyne (13 goals and 23 assists in Premier League 2019/20 and 1 goal and 2 assists in Champions League), English wing Raheem Sterling (20 goals and 6 assists in Premier League 2019/20 and 6 goals and 2 assists in Champions League), who scored the opening goal in the previous match and legendary Spanish midfielder David Silva (6 goals and 10 assists in Premier League 2019/20) who is playing his last matches with the popular “Citizens”.
Manchester City's main forward will once again be Brazilian Gabriel Jesus (6 goals and 3 assists in Champions League and 14 goals and 8 assists in Premier League 2019/20), who scored in previous game and also made an assist to his teammate Raheem Sterling. One of his main supports will be the young English talent Phil Foden (5 goals and 2 assists in Premier League 2019/20 and 2 goals and 2 assists in Champions League) who will play as a wing in this game.
Olympique Lion feels absolutely motivated after they took out Juventus in previous round. They were the underdogs, no one thought that they could achieve a placement in the quarter-finals of this competition, specially because they had to beat a great team like Juventus. This time will be the same, they will be the underdogs, so they should better focus on this match and come prepared in Portugal's Capital.
Their task in this match against English team is also quite clear, as they simply need to win. This will be their only chance. Their coach Rudi Garcia is more than happy for the previous game. He had a past as Roma's coach in Italian League, and after the game, he dedicated the victory to his former fans from the Italian Capital city. He is looking to do the same even this time.
French coach has a lot of dangerous players that he can count on, starting from the defender Marcelo who stopped Bernardeschi with a tackle by scoring maybe one of the best goals in this UEFA Champions League edition. Also French midfielder Houssem Aouar (3 goals and 4 assists in Lige 1 2019/20 and 1 goal and 3 assists in Champions League) who once again was one of the best players for his team in previous game.
In this match Olimpique will mostly rely on their captain and also their main scorer, Dutch wing Memphis Depay (9 goals and 2 assists in Ligue 1 and 6 goals in Champions League) who scored the only but also decisive goal in previous game. He is proving to everyone that he deserves to be the capitain of his club, that he can carry on his back the team not only with his abilities on the pitch, but also with his strong personality.
Olympique Lion will travel in Portugal with only one object, which is win this tough game and continue their road for the Finals of the UEFA Champions League.
This will be the 3rd time these two clubs will face each others. Olympique Lion is leading with one victory, instead of Manchester City who have never won. There is also 1 draw.

This match should see plenty of goal chances by both sides, specially from Manchester City who will spend most of their time in attack, instead of Lion who will be more defensive, and try to use some Manchester City's mistakes to try to score.
Having said all that about these two teams, I would rather think that Manchester City will win this match.
So my final Man City vs Lyon Bet is: City to win
4-3-3
3-5-2

Daniel Garcia is originally from Basque Country, and as a kid who grew up just a few streets from Mendizorrotza Stadium, the choice of Deportivo Alavés as his favourite club is more than obvious. Because of his studies, he moved to Madrid where he graduated in Sports Journalism. Daniel plays football on the weekends, but that does not stop him from watching all La Liga matches. He believes that the outcome of a match can be predicted if all the parameters are analyzed well, including form of the players and weather conditions. Currently he is living in Belgrade, and is in love with a Serbian girl who works as a journalist at one of the famous Sport Channels in Serbia.
