UEFA Champions League picks for Manchester City vs. RB Leipzig
Before you tune in to Wednesday's match, you need to see the UEFA Champions League picks from SportsLine soccer expert Brandt Sutton. Sutton, a former collegiate soccer player, has been SportsLine's top soccer editor for more than five years. He has followed soccer closely for much longer and factors in managerial tactics, projected lineups and past performances to make the most informed decisions possible, keeping his finger on the pulse of the game all over the globe.
Sutton finished 2022 as SportsLine's top soccer expert with a 165-130-2 mark, returning nearly $2,200 for $100 players. He also excelled in Serie A with a 63-39-1 mark, returning nearly $1,600.
For RB Leipzig vs. Manchester City, Sutton is backing both teams to score for a -140 payout. The two teams combined to score 12 goals in two head-to-head meetings a season ago and both teams scored in each game. They also happen to be two of the more prolific scoring clubs in their respective leagues.
RB Leipzig is currently fifth in the German Bundesliga and have scored 43 times in 21 matches with Christopher Nkunku's 12 goals ranking second in the division. Meanwhile, Manchester City have scored a Premier League-leading 60 goals and Erling Haaland is the runaway leader in the EPL with 26 goals.
"Man City lead the Premier League with 60 goals and they'll look to break down a Leipzig backline that has conceded at least once in five straight matches on home soil," Sutton told SportsLine. "Pep Guardiola's side has also conceded at least once in each of their last four fixtures." Stream the game here.
