Hanging over City and Dortmund like the Sword of Damocles is the second leg of their Champions League game which is coming up this midweek. It is finely poised with the Sky Blues leading 2-1 and ahead of that first meeting my notes went a lot like this ..................

The Ligue 2 game last night played out perfectly and mirrored all those stats, being 0-0 at the break and with Toulouse scoring the only goal of the game early in the second half and hopefully we have found some other good positions to take advantage of this evening. This "middle" part of the season is when these "in play" stats tend to stand up best.
