However, Red Bull Leipzig shouldn’t be expected to go quietly into the night. They were more than good value for the 1-1 draw on home soil three weeks ago, and currently sit in third place in the league.
The German club, semi-finalists in 2019/20, came through the group stage with 12 points, just behind Real Madrid on 13 points. However, they will be without Xaver Schlager and Christopher Nkunku, who were injured during a Bundesliga game at the weekend.
Can Leipzig pull off a huge shock and dump out the Premier League champions? Here’s how to watch City vs Leipzig on the best TV, best smartphone or best laptop you have in the house.
