Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match will be the existence of multiple goals. We believe that Manchester City will dominate much of the match and enjoy the best score chances; however, the quick transitions of Celtic will create serious difficulties for the team. On the other hand, both teams have some quality difference between the offensive and defensive sectors and are likely to score and suffer for some occasions. So, it’s foreseeable that the teams will play very offensively in order to win all three points, making a bet in favor of goals to be full of value.
