Without making any noise,
Manchester City has finally found its cruising speed. After a start to the season in line with its last campaign, Pep Guardiola’s team has developed new agreements with its summer recruits, including Rayan Cherki, author of a resounding comeback following his time in the infirmary. City have even won five of their last six matches and can rely on an absolutely clinical Erling Haaland, Europe’s top scorer behind Harry Kane and Kylian Mbappé.
City are therefore on an ascending phase, but there will be no question of underestimating this Borussia Dortmund team, which the Sky Blues have often encountered in recent seasons. Already because the BvB is ahead of them by a small place in the ranking. But also because the German club has a good impression in the Bundesliga, where it did well against Bayern (1-2). Finally, we no longer present the prolific Guirassy, a former Ligue 1 figure who became top scorer in C1 last season. Man City has been warned.
The expected compositions
Manchester City : Donnarumma; Nunes, Stones, Dias, Ait-Nouri; Gonzalez; Savinho, Reijnders, Foden, Doku; Haaland.
Dortmund : Kobel; Schlotterbeck, Anton, Bensebaini; Couto, Nmecha, Bellingham, Svensson; Beier, Brandt; Guirassy.
