Tonight is the first Champions League meeting between Manchester City and AEK Athens.
Man City vs AEK Athens Prediction
City are strong favourites at home, and their attacking depth should be too much for an AEK side playing their first Champions League season in years. AEK will likely sit deep, so an early City goal could decide the game.
CS Sports prediction: Manchester City to win, 3-0. This is an editorial opinion, not betting advice.
