Seeking to right the wrongs of their exploits at the Red Bull Arena, Manchester City host RB Leipzig in the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie on Tuesday evening.

Die Roten Bullen managed to hold the Premier League champions to a 1-1 draw in the first leg three weeks ago, but tackling the Citizens on their own turf could be a whole different kettle of fish.

We say: Manchester City 2-1 RB Leipzig (Man City win 3-2 on aggregate)


Defences do not normally come out on top when Man City and Leipzig lock horns, and we can see a similar theme continuing here, even with the absent Nkunku unable to replicate his terrific treble from 18 months ago.

However, home advantage and injuries to integral Leipzig players will no doubt work in the Citizens' favour, and while patience may be the name of the game - as it was at Selhurst Park - Guardiola's men should prevail by a narrow margin to keep their Champions League fantasy alive.

Our tipster partners are predicting a home win.

Porto vs. Inter Milan (Tuesday, 8.00pm)

Deciding who takes a place in the Champions League quarter-finals, Porto and Inter Milan play out the second leg of their last-16 tie on Tuesday, at Estadio do Dragao.

The teams' opening bout in Italy ended with Inter taking the slimmest of advantages, but they have since continued some inconsistent form while their hosts are now back in the habit of winning.

We say: Porto 2-1 Inter Milan (2-2 on aggregate; Porto win on penalties)


Even if Porto have suffered a couple of slip-ups recently, Inter's defensive woes and troubles on the road are major issues ahead of this second-leg decider. The home side can produce goals from several sources, but as they trail before kickoff it could take extra time and penalties to finally get over the line.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.
