Manchester City will welcome Celtic into Etihad Stadium for the sixth matchday in the UEFA Champions League. Manchester City desperately needs to win this game in order to secure a spot for the next round, also Celtic is in need of points to reach the third position and qualify for the Europa League.

Sexta fecha de la UEFA Champions League, Manchester City recibe al Celtic en el Etihad Stadium. Manchester City desesperadamente necesita ganar este juego para poder asegurar su clasificación a la segunda fase, también Celtic se encuentra en una posición comprometida ya que necesita sumar puntos para alcanzar el tercer puesto y clasificar a la Europa League.

Currently, Celtic is sitting on the rock-bottom of Group C and they are finding themselves in the necessity of obtaining more points in order to move up to third place in the table so they can qualify for the Europa League. Once again, they will attempt to use their momentum from the premier league in Scotland where they are the undisputed leaders of the championship as a catalyst to have a fantastic match against the premiership giants.

Celtic aun se encuentra en el fondo el Grupo C y aun se encuentran con la necesidad de sumar puntos para poder clasificarse ala Europa League. Nuevamente buscaran de trasladar su buen momento en la premier league de Escocia donde son los líderes indiscutibles del campeonato como el catalizador para tener un gran partido contra los gigantes de la premier league.

Celtic's manager, Brendan Rogers can count on having all the players on his club healthy, except for the left wing Kieran Tierney. Like I said before, the team has won all their games in the Scottish Premier League without Tierney, so this should not affect the team in a negative way.

Como en el partido anterior que cubrimos del Celtic, Brendan Rogers tendrá a su disposición todos los jugadores de su plantilla, exceptuando por el ala izquierda Kieran Tierney. De nuevo, el equipo ha logrado ganar todos sus juegos en la premier league por lo que esto no representara un problema para el técnico.

Pep Guardiola has faced many challenges since taking the manager role for Manchester City, despite the fact that he is a great coach, he's had some stumbling performances like the defeat in their last game in the Premier League against Chelsea and even the draw against Borussia in the most recent match in the Champions League. That is why they are in a difficult position, eight points behind the leader, Barcelona, if Manchester City loses this match and Borussia wins their match, Manchester City will have a lot of trouble for the next round. It is imperative that they win this match so they do not complicate their classification for the next stage.

Pep Guardiola se ha enfrentado a muchos desafíos desde que llego al Manchester City, a pesar de ser un gran técnico y tener una buen plantilla ha tenido algunos tropiezos como la derrota en la derrota en la última fecha de la Premier League a manos del Chelsea y el empate contra el Borussia en la fecha anterior de la Champions League. Es por ello que se encuentra en una posición difícil con 8 puntos detrás del líder Barcelona, de perder este partido y el Borussia ganar, estos podría tener 8 puntos igual que el City y comprometer su clasificación a la próxima ronda. Es imperativo que ganen este partido a toda costa para no complicar su clasificación a la próxima fase.

Support SteemSports Ultimate Vote Betting … together we all can win!

How to Play

• Vote on the main post to enter the bet (main post rewards will also be added to the Stake Pool).

• Cast your Vote Bet on ONLY ONE outcome for which you bet on for the win (Multiple comment votes will be automatically disqualified by the script, unvote and revote counts as multiple votes and will be disqualified).

• After 24 hours, the post and related game comments payout to the pool; remember 25% voters rewards are deducted from the total post payout value first as per Steem curation rules. Voters are rewarded in standard fashion in proportion to their Steem Power holdings.

The Stake Pool:

• The remaining 75% of the total payout is paid out in 50% Steem Power and 50% in liquid currencies, the latter now varies in payout ratio after the new fork. To make the process less complicated, we have decided to use all paid out SBD to buy Steem in the internal market to create a grand total Steem Stake Pool.

• 30% of the Stake Pool will be retained, of which 15% will go to the writer/sports presenter of the post, and the 15% balance towards editing, development and advertising.

• 70% of the Stake Pool will be held until the event/game outcome is determined.

• Once the winning outcome is determined, we will execute a proprietary developed script that will divide and pay out the Steem rewards equally, using the Power Up method, to Mass Distribute SP to all participants that voted on the main post as the entrance fee as well as voted on the correct comment representing the winning outcome.

• Only participants with a Reputation of 35 or more will qualify to earn SP rewards, but non-qualifiers can still vote and comment in support of the redistribution initiative.

• Entry cut-off time is the earlier of the post payout or the start of the event.

• Please vote responsibly :).
