The city’s first ‘match ball’ arrives in Copenhagen

The City of Manchester will face its first ‘match ball’ to enter the round of 16 of Champions. The team led by Pep Guardiola will be the next round team if they lose today Copenhagen in Denmark’s Parken (6:45 pm), although a draw would almost certainly qualify the English, who lead their group with an iron fist after their all-out success in the first three days.

Likely lineups:

Copenhagen: record; Kristiansen, Khocholava, Lund, Diks; Johannesson, Lerager, Stamenic; Daramy, Haraldsson, Claesson

Manchester City: Edison; João Cancelo, Rúben Dias, Laporte, Sergio Gómez; De Bruyne, Gündoğan, Bernardo Silva; Foden, Haaland, Grealish

No one coughs in this City this season. Since he disappeared in Community Shield against Liverpool in August, the ‘citizen’s’ team going twelve games without a loss. In Champions it is imposed with authority on Dortmund (2-1), Seville (0-4) and Copenhagen (5-0) and in the Premier will come running into their rivals based on goals (13 in the last three games) from the hands of a Erling Halland star The Norwegian striker adapted well to his new team and broke all scoring records: them 20 goals in 13 appearancessome devastating figure.

Faced with this scenario, it will be a big surprise if Copenhagen achieves something positive now to avoid deletion. They occupy the last position of the group with one point and a week ago they already experienced in their flesh the blow of Halland and the city by placing the ‘little hand’ Manchester (5-0).

Guardiolaincluding the casualties of Calvin Phillips, Kyle Walker and John Stones and the classification is affordable, can choose to do some rotationgiven that on Sunday he has a demanding clash when facing Liverpool in the Premier League.
