Man City v CSKA Moscow Betting Tips and Predictions

Man City vs CSKA Moscow prediction and football betting tips for tonight’s Champions League from expert football tipsters.

Manchester City will be looking to keep their hopes of progressing through to the knockout stages of this season’s Champions League alive on Wednesday night with victory over CSKA Moscow.

City currently lie 3rd in Group E and are winless from their opening three games. With crunch matches coming up against Roma and Bayern Munich, it is important Manuel Pellegrini’s side pick up the three points on Wednesday.

The two teams drew 2-2 in Russia a fortnight ago, with a late Bibras Natkho penalty denying City the victory. Defeats against West Ham and Newcastle followed, and even Sunday’s 1-0 derby victory over rivals Manchester United had an unnerving ending as the Sky Blues struggle to rediscover the form which made them Champions last season.

One player who has hit the ground running this year for City is Sergio Aguero, with the Argentine having found the back of the net 12 times in 14 games so far this season. Aguero is 3/1 with Paddy Power to be first goalscorer and is our first betting tip tonight.

Edin Dzeko and Samir Nasri could be recalled to the Mancheester City starting line-up against CSKA Moscow tonight, although City will still be without the talents of David Silva, Aleksander Kolarov and Eliaquim Mangala.

The point in Moscow was CSKAs first of their Champions League campaign after defeats to Roma and Bayern. Their domestic form is much better however, and they currently lie 2nd in the Russian Premier League behind Zenit St Petersburg after recording 8 wins from their opening 12 matches.

Natkho is the top scorer in the league with 7 goals, although interestingly 5 of those have come from the penalty spot. City still feel aggrieved having seen numerous penalty claims rejected by referee Michael Oliver on Sunday and could be due one soon to restore the balance. A penalty in the match is 21/10 with Betfair and seems like a reasonable possibility.

CSKA’s goalkeeper Igor Akinfeev has not kept a clean sheet in his previous 24 Champions League games and City will be looking to extend that record to 25 matches. Manchester City to win and both teams to score is our final selection at 7/4 with Coral.

It’ll be exactly a year to the day that City beat CSKA 5-2 at the Etihad in last season’s competition. Manuel Pellegrini will be hoping for a repeat score and performance this time round.
