To answer a question, they can. Very strong Manchester City team is expected today to play against poor Birmingham. Zack Steffen is expected to be on the goal, Mendy, Nathan Ake, Harwood-Bellis and Walker probably at back four. Rodri, Mahrez, Bernardo Silva also probably in the first eleven and as Guardiola said Aguero will play if he is fit for the game. Guardiola will give chance to players who didn't start a lot of games in the Premier League and we all know how many world-class players Manchester City has in their team. The visitors are on an awful run of the results lately. They have lost 5 of 6 last games and didn't score on the last two games in the Championship. Birmingham is just 4 points above the relegation zone and to make things worst coach Karanka will be without 4 regulars in this game. Halilovic, Gardner, Boyd-Munce and Jeacock are all currently recovering from injuries and this is a big blow for visitors. I expect a strong performance from Manchester City in today's game, a lot of players will try to prove themselves to coach Guardiola and Aguero will try to score a goal and get back into goal-scoring form. Manchester City over 1.5 goals in the first half is also a good bet.

My prediction: Manchester City to win (-2.5 or -3.5)

我认为他们可以。非常强大的曼城队今天将对阵实力有限的伯明翰队。扎克-史蒂芬有望进球，曼迪、内森-阿克、哈伍德-贝利斯和沃克可能会在后卫线四人位置。罗德里，马雷兹，贝尔纳多·席尔瓦也可能在前11名中出场，瓜迪奥拉说如果阿奎罗适合比赛，他将出场。瓜迪奥拉将会给那些在英超没有打过很多比赛的球员机会，我们都知道曼城有多少世界级的球员。客队最近的战绩很糟糕。他们在最近的6场比赛中输了5场，并且在最后两场比赛中没有进球。伯明翰仅比降级区高出4分，更糟糕的是，卡兰卡将在这场比赛中失去4名主力。哈利罗维奇、加德纳、博伊德-万斯和杰考克目前并没有从伤病中恢复，这对客队来说是一个巨大的打击。我期待曼城在今天的比赛中有一个出色的表现，很多球员将努力向瓜迪奥拉证明自己，而阿圭罗将努力进球，找回进球的状态。曼城上半场超过1.5个进球也是一个不错的选择。

我的预测:曼城会大胜
