Betting tips for Manchester City vs Steaua - 24.08.2016

Just like a week ago, this duel seems to be the most unbalanced one in the UEFA Champions League play-off, with Manchester City hosting Steaua Bucharest, Wednesday evening from 19:45.

Manchester City are getting better and better under Pep Guardiola, proof that they scored 11 goals in three official games so far. They had a great start in Premier League, winning 2-1 over Sunderland and 4-1 over Stoke City. They are almost qualified in the UEFA Champions League group-stage after 5-0 vs Steaua Bucharest in Romania, having no concerns ahead of this game. Guardiola is likely to rest his important players now.

Steaua Bucharest were humiliated by Man City on the pitch and by Dinamo's fans in the crowd last week, as we saw the biggest prank in football history. They have no chance to reach UCL group-stage, preparing for Europa League action for the next three months. The visitors are clearly underdogs here, with odds around 19.00 for a win. Steaua recorded a draw in the Romanian Derby few days ago, 1-1 at home.
