Man City vs Barcelona betting predictions and tips PLUS free bets for pre-season

MANCHESTER CITY and Barcelona meet in a glamour pre-season clash in the early hours of Wednesday morning.

City have been involved in two entertaining, high-scoring pre-season fixtures on their US tour so far. The only issue, as far as they’re concerned, is that they’ve been on the wrong side of the scoreline in both.

Man City vs Barcelona preview

Plenty of attacking power but a sense of weakness at the back.

That’s pretty much the simplest way of describing Manchester City’s pre-season US tour to date, after 4-3 and 3-2 defeats to Celtic and AC Milan, respectively.

It’s been very much a makeshift, largely unknown City back line, with a front four of the impressive Oscar Bobb and James McAtee alongside Jack Grealish and Erling Haaland last time out.

Many of their Copa America and Euro 2024 heroes are yet to return to meaningful training, with Pep Guardiola – facing his former club here – allowing his stars to choose when they returned.

Barcelona are yet to really get going with any big opponents in pre-season, so City should be sharper here.

Man City vs Barcelona betting tip

Goals

A total of 12 goals in their last two pre-season outings, there’s no reason that should slow down here.

The last pre-season friendly these two squared up in finished in a 3-3 draw, too. So goals are the selection.

City being every so slightly fitter – you’d assume – just gives them the edge here. And they can’t keep losing forever!
