City Eyes Victory Against Sparta: Can They Maintain Their Unbeaten Streak?

Manchester City is set to face Sparta Prague in the UEFA Champions League at the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday for matchday three of the group stage. Pep Guardiola’s squad has maintained an unbeaten record this season across all competitions and is currently the only team without a loss in the Premier League. They are coming off a 2-1 victory against Wolves, which followed Arsenal’s surprising 2-0 defeat to Bournemouth.

In their Champions League campaign, City recovered from an initial goalless draw against Inter by convincingly defeating Slovan Bratislava 4-0 in their last European outing. As they prepare for the match against Sparta Prague, Manchester City aims for another strong performance before shifting focus back to the Premier League, where they will host Southampton on Saturday.

On the other hand, Sparta Prague has made a solid start to their domestic season in the Czech Republic, accumulating eight wins, one draw, and two losses in their first eleven matches, currently placing them second in the league behind Slavia Prague.

In terms of team news, Manchester City’s injury situation has worsened with Oscar Bobb, Rodri, Kevin De Bruyne, and Kyle Walker all sidelined—Walker due to a knee injury from the international break. Additionally, Jack Grealish and Jeremy Doku did not participate in training on Tuesday, and their availability for the match remains uncertain as the team concludes its final preparations.

The starting line-ups for both Manchester City and Sparta Prague will be announced shortly before kick-off.
