Manchester City should prove too strong for Bayer Leverkusen at Etihad Stadium and are expected to fire in a few goals in the process.
The Blues continued their excellent home record in Champions League group-stage matches when brushing aside another Bundesliga outfit in Borussia Dortmund, 4-1, earlier this month.
A similar outcome is on the cards here, so EVS for Pep Guardiola’s side to prevail and over 3.5 total goals in the game is our initial Man City vs Bayer Leverkusen prediction.

Man City Form Guide
Man City Form Guide
This is the first time these teams have met in a competitive fixture, but City have generally enjoyed facing German outfits, winning 19 and drawing four of their last 24 such encounters. As already mentioned, the Blues can also boast a brilliant record on home turf in this competition at the group/league stage, posting 20 victories in a 23-match unbeaten run.
They kicked off the current campaign by beating Napoli 2-0 here before a 2-2 draw away to Monaco and a 2-0 triumph when visiting Villarreal. City’s comfortable success versus Dortmund put them fourth in the table and well placed to qualify for the knockout stages. Saturday’s loss at Newcastle and a recent defeat away to Aston Villa have left them seven points adrift of Arsenal in the Premier League, but a run of seven straight home wins in all competitions has featured 22 goals scored.
It goes without saying that Erling Haaland has been the main contributor, and he is aiming to score in six consecutive Champions League games for the second time, having previously done so as a Dortmund player. Looking at the Man City vs Bayer Leverkusen odds , Haaland can be backed at 7/4 to break the deadlock here.

Bayer Leverkusen Form Guide
Like City, Leverkusen are third in their domestic table, having bounced back from a 3-0 away loss to Bayern Munich by netting nine times in wins over Heidenheim and Wolfsburg. Kasper Hjulmand’s side also boosted their Champions League hopes earlier this month when beating Benfica 1-0 in Portugal. Werkself started out with solid score draws against Copenhagen and PSV, but appeared to have their limitations exposed when thrashed 7-2 by PSG on home turf.
As with all German teams, though, Leverkusen do tend to play an exciting brand of football, and they have only drawn a blank once in 17 outings this term. They scored in seven of eight league-stage games in this competition last and have struck in all four so far during the current campaign.
That makes a BOYLE Sports price boost of 5/4 for a home win and both teams to score worth adding to our Man City vs Bayer Leverkusen betting tips, while 9/1 for the Blues to oblige 3-1 appeals for those wanting a bigger price.
