Man City vs RB Leipzig - Champions League: TV channel, team news, lineups and prediction
- Man City host RB Leipzig in Group G on Tuesday night
- City will top the group if they avoid defeat
- Leipzig have also booked their place in the Champions League round of 16
Manchester City will secure top spot in Group G if they avoid defeat against RB Leipzig on Tuesday night.
These two sides have already booked their places in the Champions League round of 16 and City are the distinct favourites to claim top spot having beaten the Bundesliga side 3-1 in the reverse fixture. A point will do for Pep Guardiola's side in midweek, although the Spaniard will be keen to oversee a victory after they were pegged back by Liverpool at the weekend.
Leipzig, meanwhile, were beaten after the November break and are slowly slipping down the Bundesliga table having made such a bright start to the campaign.
Here's 90min's preview of City's upcoming Champions League clash with RB Leipzig.

Manchester City vs RB Leipzig score prediction
Leipzig proved they can hurt City in the reverse fixture, but their recent trips to the Etihad haven't exactly been prosperous. Guardiola's side have scored 13 in the previous two meetings on home soil.
While we shouldn't expect a thrashing on Tuesday night, City should stroll to another comfortable Champions League win. This is a Leipzig side that has been up and down either side of the November break and they're not capable of going into the Etihad and snapping City's imperious continental run.
Prediction: Manchester City 3-1 RB Leipzig
