First Striker – Sergio Aguero

After Gabriel Jesus went down with an injury, Sergio Aguero’s importance to the team grew even more. On the season, Aguero has 24 goals in all competitions, with four coming in the last four matches in all competitions. Aguero is a world-class striker that always has an eye for goal. His form has been outstanding lately for Manchester City, while the Citizens are unbeaten in their last 11 matches across three competitions. After two goals in the first leg, I expect Aguero to be chomping at the bit to get after a rotated Monaco back-line.
