Manchester City are 17/20 to win without conceding as Joe Hart hopes to get the chance to show Pep Guardiola – and potential new clubs – what he can do against Steaua Bucharest tonight.
The England number one's future at the Etihad Stadium is uncertain after losing his place in the City side and with the club apparently closing in on Barcelona's Claudio Bravo.
The pair were seen in deep conversation as City trained in front of media ahead of the Champions League play-off second leg, with City already 5-0 up from the away leg and almost certain to qualify for the group stage.
Hart looks set to leave the club before the end of the month but Guardiola insists he has not ruled out the possibility of Hart featuring against Steaua, and City are 8/11 to keep a clean sheet.
"He has a chance to play tomorrow," said Guardiola at yesterday’s press conference. "I have said many times, he is a player of us."
Tonight’s second leg is little more than a formality but Guardiola is not looking at the game that way and is demanding maximum commitment from his players.
He said: "I will make some rotations. I don't know how many, they all deserve to play and I am so confident about all the players. But I have a lot of respect for the opponent and I know what happens in football. Everybody knows it's not done until it's done.
"I have seen many times in the Champions League - at half-time an experienced team like AC Milan were 3-0 ahead and the final was done, but Liverpool won the Champions League final. I don't like to play the game when people say it's easy and it's finished. No, a lot can happen."
City are 33/25 to win by at least three goals and 31/10 to win by four or more, with Steaua coach Laurentiu Reghecampf intending to make a number of changes to his side.
"I don't think there is a question over who will qualify," he said. "We will give a chance to some players who have not played much lately and we will try to finish this play-off in the Champions League with a good performance, because I think the players need that.”
