Monaco (home)
- Monaco conceded four goals in their opening group match, with AS Monaco vs Manchester City betting tips suggesting that City, who scored five goals in their 5-1 win over Burnley, are in strong offensive form.
- Adi Hütter’s men are a young and exciting side, which plays on the front foot with a high-intensity press and rapid vertical transitions.
- But Hütter’s approach can leave Monaco open to the odd counter-attack and they were caught out badly by Brugge in their opener, which is important to consider for AS Monaco vs Manchester City betting tips.
Manchester City (away)
- Man City have scored 13 goals in their last five games in all competitions with Monaco scoring 12 goals in their last five Ligue 1 matches.
- Guardiola’s team have started their 2025 - 26 Champions League campaign with a 2-0 win over Napoli while Monaco were humbled 4-1 by Club Brugge in their opening group game.
- According to the latest AS Monaco vs Manchester City betting tips, Guardiola’s side have won four of their previous five in all competitions, thumping Burnley 5-1 at the weekend and following up with a 3-0 derby win over Manchester United on Saturday.
Head-to-Head
That 2016 - 17 Round of 16 clash is still talked about today and was ultimately won by Monaco on away goals after a 6-6 aggregate score , but City will be a different proposition on Wednesday night according to our AS Monaco vs Manchester City prediction.
Manchester City
- Erling Haaland, who opened his Champions League account with a goal in Naples and followed that with a brace against Burnley, remains the talisman of Guardiola’s frontline.
- Phil Foden is another key figure, however, having done well in both the league and Carabao Cup and he provided assists in the victory over Huddersfield.
- Jérémy Doku can bring an explosive burst of pace from wide areas, while Matheus Nunes has provided a direct and dynamic presence, contributing to recent goalfests with his pace and directness.
AS Monaco
- AS Monaco’s most deadly forward is Ansu Fati, who has netted in consecutive Ligue 1 games with a pair against Metz and a penalty at Lorient.
- But his young teammates George Ilenikhena and Maghnes Akliouche have also provided key goals and assists recently, giving Monaco an exciting edge up front.
Betting Insights
- Man City are a clear 1.47 favourites to win this Wednesday’s game, with Monaco 6.0 and the draw 4.75.
- A Man City win is the most likely outcome, but Monaco could score at some point in the match and BTTS (both teams to score) is offered at a good odds of 2.05.
- They may need to rotate their squad here and Rodri’s fitness will need to be monitored.
Prediction
- Backing Man City to continue their good form is the best play here, but it is not a given that City will win this game comfortably.
- A 2-1 or 2-0 City victory is the preferred correct score prediction because Monaco have been scoring plenty of goals lately and could make this an entertaining encounter with their flair and home advantage.
