UEFA Champions League 2018/19, Quarterfinals: Predictions

#3 Manchester City vs Tottenham Hotspur

AFC Bournemouth v Manchester City - Premier League

The battle of English clubs as Manchester City take on Tottenham Hotspur for a crucial champions league semifinal spot. The English clubs look extremely potent on paper as the number of world-class attackers in both these sides is tremendously impressive.

Layers like Raheem Sterling, Sergio Aguero, Harry Kane and Dele Alli will take the centre stage with a mission to help their side reach the last 4 of the tournament.

Tottenham Hotspur under Mauricio Pocchetino have been flying and have been appreciated by critics as well as fans for their enticing playing styles. Spurs strolled past German heavyweights Borussia Dortmund in the round of 16 by registering a 4-0 victory over the 2 legs.

Talking about awe-inspiring victories, Manchester City will probably be the first one in line to boast about their emphatic path to the last 8 as the English champions inflicted a heavy defeat over Schalke in the round of 16. Pep Guardiola's men won the tie 10-2 on aggregate and will look to keep their joy ride active and reach Madrid for the final this year.

But with spurs as their opponents in the round of 16, the road doesn’t look extremely smooth ahead for Pep Guardiola's men. The Spaniard will have to be at his tactical best to oust Mauricio Pocchetino in the quarterfinals and with the squad at his hands, expect the same to happen.

Prediction: Manchester City to reach the semi-finals
