Manchester City has got a powerful rival this season - Arsenal. The Citizens are at risk of not being champions in the EPL as they currently sit second in the table with 67 points. Arsenal is six points clearer but has played 30 games in the table compared to 29 for the Mancunians. In other words, they still have a chance of success. In the last five, by the way, they have only produced victories. And Manchester City's success in the domestic league can be combined with the Champions League, where they destroyed RB Leipzig 8:1 overall in the round of 16. This week, in the first leg of the quarter-final, they crushed the powerful Bayern Munich 3:0.
Leicester
Leicester is failing the current campaign. With an excellent squad, the Foxes are in the relegation zone in the standings. They are 19th on the table with 25 points but are just two points behind 17th place. Dean Smith, whose appointment as head coach was announced the other day, has come to save the situation. It will be recalled that Brendan Rodgers, who had been in charge since 2019, was sacked by the club's management on April 2. Leicester's recent results have been abysmal, with eight defeats in nine games and only one draw. In the last one, the team lost 0:1 to Bournemouth.

Expert Betting Tips
Manchester City is the favorite for the upcoming clash. The Citizens are in a crazy condition. The week before, they beat Bayern in the Champions League. Leicester, managed by Dean Smith the day before, will be complicated in their debut match. We should also note the incredible play of the Mancunians in the attack, as they scored a total of 24 goals (4.8 on average) in the last five games. These are crazy numbers to bet on the home team's total (2.5). We can also consider their victory with a minus handicap. In general, we expect a smashing victory for the stronger team.
