RB Leipzig Manchester CityNo absentees
RB Leipzig host Manchester City in the Champions League at the Red Bull Arena on Wednesday 4 November, kick-off 8.00pm (UK time).
City arrive as strong favourites after a dominant recent history against the German side, though Leipzig have been a different proposition on home soil. Our RB Leipzig vs Manchester City predictions and betting tips look at whether the visitors can shrug off a rare home defeat to PSG and reassert themselves in the league phase.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson lands on two selections for a fixture City have dominated in recent years.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Rayan Cherki to assist anytime | 6/4 (bet365) | Rayan Cherki has quickly become one of Manchester City’s chief creators, and the visitors have scored nine goals across their three league-phase games. Leipzig have shipped eight in their two away defeats, so City should carve out plenty against a back line that has struggled on the road. At 6/4, Cherki to register an assist offers a tidy price given how often City turn possession into clear chances, with Erling Haaland and Phil Foden on hand to finish his work. |
| Manchester City to win to nil | 11/4 (bet365) | Manchester City kept a clean sheet in their only away game of the league phase, a 2-0 win at Porto, and they have long had the measure of Leipzig, winning four of the last six head-to-heads. The hosts have managed just two goals in their two away games this season and can be blunt when the game gets stretched. With City carrying the greater quality at both ends, 11/4 about a win to nil is well worth backing against a Leipzig side still finding its feet in Europe. |

How RB Leipzig go into the game
RB Leipzig sit 30th in the league phase with just three points from their opening three games, a return of one win and two defeats. Both losses came on the road, where they have conceded eight goals, but at home they have been far more solid.
The home win was a 1-0 success over PSV that brought their solitary clean sheet, a reminder they can be awkward on their own patch.
Last time out, though, Leipzig were well beaten 4-1 at Real Madrid, and Christoph Baumgartner and Antonio Nusa will need to be at their best against City.
How Manchester City go into the game
Manchester City sit 10th on six points, with two wins and a single defeat from three. Last time out they hammered AEK Athens 5-1 at home, underlining their attacking firepower.
Their one blemish was a 4-2 home defeat to PSG, when the usually tight City back line was carved open. Erling Haaland and Phil Foden lead a forward line that has scored nine goals already, and against a Leipzig side beaten in both European away trips, City should have enough.
RB Leipzig vs Manchester City head-to-head
| Date | Home | Score | Away |
|---|---|---|---|
| 28/11/23 | Manchester City | 3-2 | RB Leipzig |
| 04/10/23 | RB Leipzig | 1-3 | Manchester City |

| 07/12/21 | RB Leipzig | 2-1 | Manchester City |
These sides have met six times in the Champions League in recent seasons, and City hold a commanding edge, winning four of the last six, including a 7-0 rout. Leipzig’s only victory in that run came back in December 2021.
RB Leipzig vs Manchester City predictions & betting tips
| Our Prediction | Odds & Bookmaker | Confidence | Why We’re Backing It |
|---|---|---|---|
| Manchester City to win | 4/7 (bet365) | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | City have won four of the last six meetings and kept a clean sheet in their only away game this term. |
| Both teams to score – No | 7/4 (Betfred) | ⭐⭐⭐ | City kept a clean sheet in their only away game of the league phase so far, and a disciplined display could shut the hosts out. |
| Under 2.5 goals | 9/4 (Sky Bet) | ⭐⭐⭐ | City’s away trip this term finished 2-0, and a cagey knockout-style night points to fewer goals. |
| RB Leipzig 0-2 Manchester City | 11/1 (bet365) | ⭐⭐ | City have the firepower to win comfortably while Leipzig struggle to break down a settled defence. |
RB Leipzig vs Manchester City score prediction
