Roma - Manchester City    (won)

City needs a win here and I think they will be capable of doing that. This group lived a drama, first of all with the 2-2 draw between CSKA and City in last 10 minutes, then again with a late equalizer by CSKA against Roma, and at last with the stunning comeback by Citizens against Bayern.

Roma can play for the draw, but in this case they would be qualified only if CSKA won't win in Munich. Given what the russian did in last two rounds, never say never. Roma knows how to play in counter, Gervinho is a top player in those terms, but they are undergoing a bad run period, ended with the late and undeserved equalizer against Sassuolo. In that match, we all had the confirmation that De Sanctis can't play at high levels: he made Roma pay for his mistake, once again after he already did it in Moscow.

The big problem here is that City will travel to Rome without many players: Aguero will miss the match due to his recent knee injury, while Yaya Tourè is banned. Also Jovetic, Silva, Dzeko and Kompany are doubtful. But I still think that with all the experienced player they have in their roster (Demichelis, Zabaleta, Milner, Lampard), and given the recent good streak in Premier League (5 win and a draw in last 6), they can have their chances here.
