Round two in Group D of the UEFA Women's Champions League kicks off on Wednesday evening when St Polten welcome Manchester City to Generali Arena. SKN are bottom of the group after week one, while the Citizens are top of the table. Check out our match prediction below.
If there were ever any doubts about how Manchester City would fare among Europe’s elite, those were likely put to rest after their opening-round victory over title holders Barcelona.
If you’re not sure how significant a victory over Barca is - consider this - Blaugrana are three-time Champions League winners, lost only one of their last 18 group-stage games, and have scored 25 goals in their last three league games alone.
The Sky Blues followed up that result with a dramatic late win over Liverpool at the weekend to maintain their unbeaten record this season and move back to the top of the WSL standings.
Meanwhile, St Polten entered this group as the rank outsider to reach the knockout rounds, and based on their performance in week one, it’s hard to build an argument against the odds.
SKN kicked off their Champions League campaign with a 2-0 loss to Hammarby last week. However, that scoreline does not tell the full tale of the match, as the Damallsvenskan champs squandered a handful of very good chances.
Aside from Europe, St Polten are in excellent form domestically, already leading the OFB-Frauenliga standings with six wins and a draw in seven, and on their way to yet another league title.

Our SKN St. Polten vs Manchester City Prediction
After downing the defending champions, Manchester City enter this week as one of the shortest-priced favourites of matchday two, with most expecting them to notch up a lopsided victory.
If that is to be the case, a clean sheet is also expected from the Citizens, meaning if we are to see a huge scoreline here, it would have to come from the visitors solely. Considering St Polten are playing at home, we’re going with the hosts to keep their visitors under five. Our St Polten vs Manchester City prediction: Total Goals - Under five!
2 Goals Ahead Early Payout
More than 80 leagues and competitions are available on this football promotion from bet365. If the team that you have backed takes a two-goal lead at any point in the game, then your bet is a winner, regardless of the final scoreline. This counts on both single bets and on multiples placed on the full time market, though of course on a multiple it is only the game in question that is marked as a winner, all the other selections still have to win as well.
