Man City vs Dortmund Prediction: Can't stop Haaland

Erling Haaland is in impressive form. With a double against Bournemouth last weekend, the Norwegian striker has scored 13 goals in 10 Premier League matches this season.

In the Champions League arena, Haaland also has 4 goals after 3 appearances and shows no signs of stopping.

It is easy to see that after De Bruyne left Etihad, Pep Guardiola is building a new Man City style around Haaland, playing directly and switching states more quickly.

Thanks to that, the Norwegian striker "fired" regularly, with many situations of running behind the defense and then scoring.

After 3 rounds of Champions League, facing tough opponents Napoli, Monaco and Villarreal, Man City's achievement of 7 points is very encouraging.

Pep Guardiola and his team are saving points to get a direct ticket to the round of 16. To do that, they need to continue to beat Borrusia Dortmund tonight.

The stats are in the Citizens' favour, as they have won 11 consecutive home games against German sides.

Dortmund traveled to Etihad with high confidence in their attack, scoring 4 goals in every match against their opponents in the 2025/26 Champions League.

They created a 4-4 draw with Juventus, defeated Bilbao 4-1 and then defeated FC Copenhagen 4-2 right on Danish soil.

Dortmund's strikers have also scored in all away matches since the start of the season and have torn apart Man City's net in their last three trips to the Etihad.

However, the confrontations in 2021 and 2022 both ended with a 2-1 victory in favor of the English representative.
