Manchester City vs Club BruggeManchester City vs Club Brugge Champions League match review

Manchester City are set for this weekend's derby with a 4-1 win over Club Brugge in the Champions League on Wednesday.

Pep Guardiola says the European tie was "more important" than the clash with Manchester United on Saturday and that his side has provided a credible performance.

Phil Foden, Riyad Mahrez, Rahim Sterling and Gabriel Jesus all scored as the Premier League champions won their first of three matches in all competitions.

Brugge got into the scoresheet with a ridiculous own goal from John Stones but three points saw City's edge near the knockout stage.

"At half-time the manager was not happy and you have to take his advice," Foden said. "She made some changes and we were much better in the second half.

"Once we got our rhythm the opportunities started to open up."

Barcelona vs Benfica match Prediction and live watching link - LS TV

Barcelona vs Benfica match Prediction

Probably the closest match of the upcoming group league round is the match between Barcelona and Benfica, so if you want to know more, check out our preview of this match.

Barcelona will win

It is difficult to predict that both teams are battling injuries at the moment. Also, Barcelona recently changed managers and Benfica won the first game 3-0, it looks like it is a very open game. Nevertheless, our prediction is that Barcelona will win this game, mostly because they will play at home and the team is shaking positively after taking over the Xavi rule and has made its debut with a win over city rivals Espanyol.

The total goal is more than 2.5

Barcelona have scored more than 2.5 goals in two of the four matches played in the group stage, while the same applies to three of the four Benfica games in the group. Of course, this includes the first doubles between these teams at the start of this season. In addition, Barcelona averaged 2.69 goals in La Liga this season, while Benfica have averaged 3.09 goals in their domestic league so far. So, we see these two teams come together for at least three goals.

Both teams will score - yes

Since we believe it will be a high-scoring match, we expect both teams to score in this game, although we did not see it in their first meeting after Barcelona failed to score. So far, both teams have scored 62% of all Barcelona matches in La Liga so far, as well as 55% of all Benfica games in the Premier League this season.
