Slovan is one of those teams that had to go the hardest way to reach the main stage of the Champions League. Through 3 rounds of qualification against Struga, Celje and Apoel and then the final victory in the Playoff against the toughest rival Midtjylland with a total score of 4-3. It may be some kind of phrase, but this team can be said to have achieved success simply by joining the company of the big names of this game. A 5-1 defeat against Celtic in the 1st round certainly brought them down to earth if they were flying after a successful qualification.
The rival in the 2nd round cannot be more difficult, the winner of the Premier League and Champions League from two years ago, Manchester City. "Citizens" have already experienced two unsuccessful results in the Premier League in a row. Draws against Newcastle and Arsenal. In addition, at the start of the Champions League, they played a goalless draw against Inter, so this is probably an excellent chance to sharpen their form. Especially without De Bruyne and Rodri who are very important figures in this team.
Slovan Bratislava vs Manchester City: OVER 3.5 GOALS
It would be a real sporting miracle if Manchester City could not be able to win in Bratislava. It is still too early in the league competition for Pep Guardiola to combine and calculate with the roster. For Slovan, it will be a triumph if they don't lose too convincingly in this match, and Manchester City will definitely be motivated to score couple more goals after a few ineffective weeks. We expect a convincing victory of the visiting team with a total of 4 or more goals
Slovan Bratislava team news
The total value of Slovan Bratislava players is around EUR 30 million. Adler from Switzerland will probably not be able to play against City due to a shin injury, while the same can be said for Pauschek who is suffering from a shoulder injury.
