8:30 p.m. – “From my first C1 match, I was asked if I had arrived to win the Champions League”, Guardiola
“That does not mean that I agree with that. But I know that we will be judged on this competition. From my first C1 match, I was asked if I had arrived to win the League of Champions”, detailed yesterday in a press conference Pep Guardiola. Manchester City only remains on failures in the Champions League with a final in 2021 and a semi-final in 2022.
20:00 – City have home advantage
Manchester City did not achieve the best of operations with a draw at RB Leipzig on February 22. Tonight, the Skyblues will host the Germans at the Etihad Stadium. A defeat of the Citizens would be a terrible disappointment. Qualification is almost reaching out to Guardiola’s men who hope to reach the quarter-finals of this Champions League. The English still hope to one day lift the Cup with big ears.
19:00 – Porto-Inter, the probable line-ups
The two coaches will make some changes compared to the round of 16 first leg played in Italy. At Inter, Skriniar should start on the bench like Lukaku. FC Porto must make up for the absence of suspended Otavio.
- FC Porto : Costa – Zaidu, Marcano, Pepe, Pepê – Galeno, Uribe, Grujic, Eustaquio – Taremi, T. Martinez
- Inter : Onana – Darmian, Acerbi, Bastoni, Dumfries, Dimarco – Calhanoglu, Brozovic, Barella – Dzeko, Martinez
6:00 p.m. – Manchester City, Leipzig, the probable line-ups
Pep Guardiola will line up the best possible eleven with the genius of De Bruyne, the ardor of Foden in front and the “cyborg” Erling Haland”. Marco Rose, to thwart the plans of the Spanish tactician should opt for a 4-4-2.
- Manchester City : Ederson – Aké, Akanji, R.Dias, Walker – Rodri, B.Silva, Gündogan – Grealish, Haaland, Mahrez
- leipzig : Blaswich – Halstenberg, Gvardiol, Orban, Henrichs – Laimer, Haïdara, Forsberg, Szoboszlai – And.Silva, Werner
17:00 – Porto without Otavio
The first leg turned in favor of Inter Milan who won 1-0 on February 22 in the first leg. During this confrontation, attacking midfielder Otavio was suspended after collecting a red card. It was reduced to 10 that FC Porto was surprised at the end of the game by Lukaku (86th). Sergio Conceiçao had shown his disappointment and incomprehension in a press conference by evoking the second yellow conceded by his player. “Otavio’s second yellow card can be understood, but there are also Inter players who could have had a yellow, like Lautaro Martinez (who would have been suspended on the return). It was an important moment in the match, fair or unfair, I let you judge”, he had therefore launched to the journalists.
16:00 – Simone Inzaghi slightly under pressure
Rumors surrounding a return of Antonio Conte are spreading more and more. Simone Inzaghi, current coach of Inter, is not yet weakened. His team is second in Series 1. However, the Néazzuris are only one point ahead of Lazio and 3 over Roma and AC Milan. Naples is already almost Italian champion. In the event of a defeat in the round of 16 of the Champions League and poor results in the Championship, the future of the Italian coach could therefore well be threatened.
The group stage of the Football Champions League was played from Tuesday September 6, 2022 to Wednesday November 2, 2022 while the knockout stage will take place from Tuesday February 14, 2023 to Wednesday May 17, 2023. As for the final, it is scheduled for June 10, 2023 at the Atatürk Olympic Stadium in Istanbul.
