Man City vs Atalanta: Prediction, team news and injuries, live stream, H2H, betting – Champions League preview

Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City will be looking to make it three wins from three as they host Atalanta at the Etihad Stadium tonight.

The Serie A side have lost each of the two matches thus far, and having returned to winning ways at the weekend City will be out to consolidate their place at the top of Group C.

The bookmakers unsurprisingly make City huge favourites going into this one, while Atalanta are without star striker Duvan Zapata who sustained an injury with Colombia during the international break.

Anything is possible, but you’d be hard pushed to find many backing the Italians on Tuesday night…
