Will City easily advance to the UCL last four or will Bayern Munich mount a comeback at home?

Bayern Munich vs Manchester City. In the first leg of the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals, Pep Guardiola’s Man City defeated Thomas Tatchell’s Bayern Munich by a score of 3-1. Can they reverse this in the next leg?

The Bavarian juggernauts have lost their last two meetings with Man City and will be looking to become the fifth team to come back from a 3-0 first-leg deficit.
