Manchester City welcomes PSG in a match of the group stage of the Champions League. The outcome of this match will largely solve the intrigue for the first position in Group A. At the moment, the "Citizens" have a point lead over the Parisians, although they left defeated by "Park des Princes" with 2: 0 at the end of September . In their remaining three matches, however, Manchester City was flawless, unlike PSG, which failed in their visits to Bruges and RB Leipzig, which ended in a draw.
Over the weekend, Man City, as expected, beat Everton in a Premier League match, triumphing with a classic 3-0 success. This was the second consecutive match in which Pep Guardiola's players did not allow a goal in their goal, after the 2-0 victory against Man United before the break for national teams. The "Citizens" last kept a dry net in two consecutive games in September, so the Spaniard can be happy with the performance of his team.
Although difficult, PSG beat Nantes 3-1 on Saturday. The match went relatively smoothly for the Parisians after an early goal by Killian Mbape, before reaching a red card for Keylor Navas in the middle of the second half. Nantes later equalized in the result, but the Parisians still grabbed the three points. PSG's lead in Ligue 1 is 11 points and only a miracle would deprive them of gold medals, so all attention should be focused on the Champions League and the upcoming visit to Manchester.
In the first match between the two teams, PSG was lucky to take the lead with an early goal, which allowed him to go home and close the empty spaces. However, I am not convinced that the guests are able to deceive a quality opponent like Manchester City for the second time in a row. Even against RB Leipzig, it was clear that Mauricio Pochettino has something to work on away from home, although his team was minutes away from taking the three points.
At the moment, Manchester City is in almost top form and especially as a host dominates its opponents. I do not think that the Citizens will miss the opportunity to secure their first position in Group A, even before the last match of the group stage. PSG have won just one of their last four away games in all competitions, against Bordeaux in crisis.
