The Citizens have to be considered as the favorites to win this tie, but their trip to Germany could mean more trouble than expected.

What is Schalke and Manchester City's form ahead of this game?

Schalke makes it to this tie having won only one of their last four games. Their last match ended in a goalless draw against Freiburg, while their previous meeting ended in a 3-1 loss against Pep Guardiola's former team, Bayern München. The German side has only scored six goals in the current UEFA CL campaign, one of the lowest tallies among those who made it to the Round of 16.

Manchester City enters this game on a four-game winning streak. The Citizens have scored 15 goals in their four recent outings while conceding only twice. Twelve of their last thirteen games have ended with a win, with the only exception being their 2-1 loss against Newcastle on January 29.
