Manchester City are bidding to extend their unbeaten UEFA Champions League group-stage campaign as they host RB Leipzig at the Etihad on Wednesday evening.

Pep Guardiola's side have already secured their passage to the last 16 after four wins from wins and will be hoping to bounce back following Saturday's 1-1 draw with Premier League title rivals Liverpool.

Erling Haaland netted City's only goal and already has four goals in four games so far in Europe this season. Marco Rose's Leipzig are currently fifth in the Bundesliga after 12 games played, having lost three times domestically in 2023/24.

They too have already booked their spot in the last-16 of the Champions League like City, having amassed nine points from their opening four games in Group G.
