The pressure is huge on Guardiola to name the correct team at the Etihad as Man City go in search of the one trophy that's so far eluded them. Now as Guardiola looks to balance Man City's ambitions in Europe, the Premier League and the FA Cup, all eyes will be on the XI he selects for the second leg of the last-16 clash. Now as they bid to make the Champions League quarter-finals for just the second time in their history, RB Leipzig will look to their host of dangermen to do the business in east Manchester. The Spaniard inexplicably named a team without Rodri for the 2021 Champions League final and it backfired as Man City got beat 1-0 by Chelsea in their only visit to the showpiece clash. The competition where Haaland has really made a name for himself is the Champions League after announcing himself to the world with a hat-trick on his debut while playing for RB Salzburg.

Manchester City vs RB Leipzig: How to watch live, team news, updates (Premier League News, Video, Scores | NBC Sports' ProSoccerTalk)

Manchester City host RB Leipzig in their UEFA Champions League last 16 second leg on Tuesday with the scores locked at 1-1 after a tense first leg.

Thomas Frank’s side were unlucky not to grab anything at Everton last time out and they can expect a similar game at Southampton as teams respect them and will sit back and soak up pressure. Expect to see a reaction from the Bees who are still chasing European qualification and have hammered Southampton 3-0 at home the last two times they’ve faced them. This could be the craziest relegation scrap in Premier League history. Brighton has claimed four of its last six points, but will not believe it’s not six as the Seagulls wasted chance after chance in a 2-2 draw with fortunate Leeds. Those matches-in-hand mean Roberto De Zerbi’s men are either on the fringes of the top-four fight (!!) or just in a meaningless 11th. 12) but has only seen its table ranking drop from 10th to 12th. Below is the full schedule, as you can watch all 380 games across our NBC platforms. Who will be the surprise package? Leipzig have also been without Abdou Diallo who has been training on his own as he returns from knee issues, while goalkeeper Peter Gulacsi is out for the season after knee surgery. If they had Chrisopher Nkunku back fit they would have even more of a chance to dump City out of Europe. Guardiola knows the pressure is on City to win the Champions League this season, especially with the charges against them for alleged breaches of Premier League rules. Pep Guardiola has admitted his time at City will only be defined as a perfect success if he can deliver the Champions League trophy.

[Paramount+](https://www.paramountplus.com/?cbscidmt=sports&ftag=PPM-03-10aie0i) RB Leipzig are a team that know Haaland well from his time in the Bundesliga and Josko Gvardiol is a talented center back that can keep up with Haaland's movement. But returning to basics, Foden and City can unlock what has been a strong Lepzig defense. It has been an up-and-down season for the Englishman, coming in and out of the lineup. With everyone expected to come back in for this match, it will give Foden a chance to do what he does best in support of Haaland. As of late, he has been a mainstay on the right wing with two goals and an assist in his last four starts. The team should have been good enough at half-strength to get points off of Palace and thanks to a chance from the spot by Erling Haaland, they were. Walker will likely come back into the lineup for John Stones who started at right-back against Crystal Palace which gives Foden more space to work on the wing. On Tuesday, Pep Guardiola will continue his quest to win the Champions League as Manchester City host RB Leipzig in the round of 16 second leg after a 1-1 draw in the first leg in Germany.

Manchester City and RB Leipzig face off for a place in the Champions League quarterfinals. Riyad Mahrez gave City the lead in Germany but Josko Gvardiol ...

Manchester City are generally imperious at this stage of the competition, last falling in the Round of 16 to Monaco in 2017. Riyad Mahrez and Phil Foden have to be content with a place on the bench as Bernardo Silva and Jack Grealish complete the front three either side of Erling Haaland. 1 hour from kickoff: It's hard not to feel a little aggrieved for Riyad Mahrez, who gave City the lead in the first leg in Germany. The visitors deal with the corner with the minimum of fuss. The France star scored a hattrick at the Etihad Stadium last season, albeit in a 6-3 group-stage defeat. As City line up to face Leipzig goalkeeper Blaswich in possession it looks like De Bruyne will play in the frontline, with Silva in midfield. Referee Slavko Vincic consults the monitor and in UEFA "rules is rules" terms, that's a penalty. But Marco Rose will be fuming at both the penalty decision and the manner in which his side defended that corner at the end of the first half. De Bruyne unleashes a blistering left-footed strike that cannons off the crossbar, into the turf and Haaland heads into an unguarded net. The importance of Grealish to this approach was clear for all to see, especially in the tight and tense early stages. Of course it was from a corner because the Leipzig defence have entirely lost the run of themselves. Haaland pressured Blaswich into a hasty clearance shortly after the restart and the ball came back with interest.

He is the first man in nine years to score five in a Champions League game and it might have been more had Pep Guardiola not withdrawn him. In a week in which his manager had told him to focus on the simple things, he duly completed the rout by curling the ball into the top corner of the net with the final kick of the match. The second of them to come before the half-time whistle. That saw Timo Werner lead the line on his own.

The contact was minimal, and the decision to award a penalty will further the debate on how VAR should be used. Vincic decided to play on and then handed a yellow card to the protesting Timo Werner.

Amadou Haidara did get to it first but his attempted clearance cannoned off Haaland’s legs and into the net. Things almost immediately got even worse for Leipzig as Haaland claimed his fourth following a corner. The City keeper escaped punishment and, with that, Leipzig rarely threatened again. Haaland claimed his treble on the stroke of half-time after a Ruben Dias header struck the post and rolled across the line. Yet he did not stop there, going on to become only the third player to score five in a single Champions League game and take his overall total in the competition to 33 in 25 games. Haaland took his tally for the campaign to a staggering 39 from 36 appearances in a ruthless performance at the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday.
