REF’s picks

Backing Leipzig with a generous handicap provides a buffer against City's overall superiority.

1. 1Leipzig are capable of keeping margins close on home turf.
2. 2City often win by narrow margins in tough European away matches.
3. 3An aggressive visiting display could easily blow past larger handicaps.
