Manchester City vs Sporting Lisbon 09.03.2022
Manchester City are fresh off a 4-1 drubbing of rivals Manchester United to sustain their hunt for yet another Premier League title.
The Citizens looked very convincing against United on Sunday and they will take that buzz into the game against Sporting Lisbon in the Champions League Round of 16 Return leg.
With a five-goal headstart in this tie already, City are likely to rest some of their star performers, but they should still be strong enough to get a handsome win against the visitors from Portugal.
