Prediction: 1-3
Man City
Wednesday’s football game between Leeds United and Manchester City will bring down the curtain on day 17 of the new Premier League campaign. The Whites are only two points clear of the relegation zone, and it is no wonder the bookies see them as underdogs in this encounter. Defender Tyler Adams is banned for the match, whereas all Gray, Sinisterra, and Dallas are sidelined with injuries. Meanwhile, Pep Guardiola’s troops are eager to melt Arsenal’s advantage in the standings.
The Citizens suffered a shocking home loss to Brentford before the international break, but we predict that they will take advantage of Leeds United’s shaky defence. Argentina striker Julian Alvarez should be given a rest following his participation in the World Cup final, but there are no fresh injury worries in the away team ahead of the trip to West Yorkshire.

Highlighted Team (Man City):
Manchester City are the lest famous of the two major clubs based in Manchester. The club was founded in 1880, but they have been struggling in the English Premier League in the past. Nonetheless, ever since the club was purchased by Abu Dhabi United Group in 2008, the Citizens have been playing an important role in the English top flight.
Manchester City won two Premier League trophies under Roberto Mancini and Manuel Pellegrini (2011/2012 and 2013/2014), but both managers eventually paid the price for some disappointing results. Man City play their home games at the Etihad Stadium and the stadium capacity is 55,097.
Manchester United are regarded as Manchester City’s biggest rivals and the likes of Kun Aguero, Carlos Tevez, Shaun Wright-Phillips, Uwe Rosler, Yaya Toure, Sylvain Distin are some of the most remarkable players that played for the Etihad Stadium outfit. Manchester City have won four Premier League titles and five FA Cup trophies and it has to be noted that they made it to the Champions League semis in the 2015/2016 season.
