Bristol City Team News
Bristol City has greatly improved their performance in the Championship of late. At one point, they were on the brink of dropping into the relegation zone, but a fantastic 12-game unbeaten run in all competitions took them to mid-table after 33 rounds played.
The main problem of the team is the defense. So far, they have conceded 41 goals in the Championship. They often allow the opponent to counter-attacks, which in most cases becomes a goal. This will undoubtedly be a serious problem in the duel with Manchester City, which can transform from the defense phase to the attack with incredible speed.
Bristol scored the same number of goals in the last four games. Still, they missed a lot of chances to threaten the opponent’s goal, so we can conclude that they have to create a lot of chances to overcome the opponent, which will be very difficult to do in the next match against favorites like Manchester City, almost impossible.
Manchester City Team News
After setbacks against Nottingham in the Premier League and RB Leipzig in the first match of the round of 16 of the Champions League, the Citizens announced the continuation of their winning streak with a “four” against Bournemouth. They reached the round of 16 of the FA Cup after a 1-0 triumph over Arsenal and a convincing 4-0 win against Chelsea.
These results say enough that City will have no respect for the next opponents, whoever stands in their way to the trophy, especially if it is an opponent from a lower level of the competition, as is the case with the Bristol City team. Pep Guardiola is one of the few coaches with the luxury of constantly rotating players, so whichever team he takes to the field on Tuesday will be more dominant than the next rival.
Suffice it to say that players like Foden and Alvarez are waiting for minutes from the bench, and those same players in another team would undoubtedly be in the starting eleven. In the last game against Bournemouth, they were the scorers, and we believe they will continue using every opportunity in the best possible way.

Bristol City vs Manchester City Prediction
Although Bristol City is on a 12-match unbeaten run, they now face their biggest challenge of the season. With all due respect to Pearson and his players, we think Manchester City will play a dominant game and secure a place in the quarter-finals of this competition with a convincing result.
