Match preview

Manchester City were always likely to ease through Group G, and so it panned out on matchday one in Southern Spain.

Last Tuesday, the Citizens hammered Sevilla 4-0 at Estadio Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán with, who else, Erling Braut Håland bagging a brace.

Phil Foden’s reverse finish and then Rúben Dias’s tap-in securing an emphatic victory.

At home, Man City are unbeaten in 11 Champions League group games, winning ten, and it would be a major surprise if that streak was ended here.

Borussia Dortmund do also have three points on the board following their 3-0 victory over København on matchday one.

Marco Reus, Raphaël Guerreiro and Jude Bellingham the scorers at Westfalenstadion.

Last month, they lost 3-2 to Werder Bremen, despite leading 2-0 with 89 minutes played and, on Saturday, die Schwarzgelben were hammered 3-0 by RB Leipzig.

Anything other than a heavy home win in Manchester would be a massive surprise.
