The Citizens carried their dominance from the Premier League to the CL, and comfortably sit at the top of the table. This Tuesday they are pitted against the second-placed Borussia Dortmund, and a win could confirm themselves as the group champions.
The reason being, they have a lead of three points at the top of the table, and one more victory would put them six points clear, with a single game week remaining.
This year seems like the best chance for Pep Guardiola and his boys to go after European glory. They have an in-form and immensely talented squad. And their results so far have built extraordinary momentum as well.
In fact, they have a 100% winning record in the Champions League till now, barring a single draw. They also scored the most number of goals in the group, and conceded the least. Note that they have a combined scorecard of 11-1 so far.
Meanwhile, Dortmund are yet to hit top form this season. They did register some impressive wins along the way, but consistency has always been an issue for them.
They dropped a lot of points along the way, and also conceded goals in huge numbers. Moreover, they already lost the reverse fixture against the EPL title-holders, and this Tuesday they are under immense pressure to go after a win.
This is not at all a good setup when you are pitted against Pep’s team, and the Spaniard would know just how to take advantage of this.
