Juventus are currently leading Group G with 6 points after 2 wins. Man City are in second place with 3 points and will qualify if they win against Al Ain. This task is completely within Man City's reach because they are stronger than their opponents in every aspect.

According to experts in this match, Man City in this match must both play and rest for the match with Juventus in the final round. But even when using the second team, defeating Al Ain is not too difficult a task for the English "giant".

Meanwhile, on Al Ain's side, head coach Ivic has no further concerns about his squad. They will continue to play a large defensive game against Man City because just 1 point against Al Ain is a success.

Commenting on this match, expert Ben Knapton predicted: "Even if Al Ain tries to "defend to the death", their defense will eventually be broken, after which Man City will probably rush into the fight.

Even with a significantly changed starting line-up and having to rest up for the Juventus game, Guardiola's side can still get the job done without much concern. I think they will secure their place in the knockout stages after this game. It will be 4-0."
