Manchester City vs. Steaua Bucharest Live Stream, Preview, Predictions for Champions League 2016-17 Playoffs As Sergio Aguero Looks for More Goals
Manchester City and Steaua Bucharest face off in the return leg of the Champions League 2016-17 playoff.
This game is a mere formality for Pep Guardiola's club. The team dominated the Romanian side in the first leg of this tournament winning 5-0 in a game that featured three goals from Sergio Aguero; the Argentine striker still missed two penalties in that game despite the three goals.
Guardiola's troops have looked dominant in the two recent games, also winning their Premier League game with Stoke City by the score of 4-1. Aguero also scored twice in the game and has six total goals on the season.
City made the semifinals of the tournament last year after surprisingly topping Paris Saint-Germain in the quarterfinals. But Real Madrid managed to get by them with a 1-0 win over two legs en route to winning the entire tournament.
Prediction
Manchester City is likely to rest a number of key players for this game so do not expect another 5-0 drubbing. It will likely end in a 1-1 or 2-2 draw.
Start Time
The match between Manchester City and Steaua Bucharest kicks off at 2:45 p.m. EDT on Wednesday, August 24.
