Manchester City, one of the tournament favorites, is looking for a straightforward win as they face Slovan Bratislava in Slovakia on Tuesday in the UEFA Champions League.
Despite being heavily favored to repeat their recent success in the tournament, City has struggled to find their form. They have only one win in their last four matches, highlighted by a disappointing 1-1 draw against Newcastle in the Premier League, which has raised concerns regarding the impact of midfielder Rodri’s long-term knee injury.
In their opening match of this tournament, Slovan Bratislava suffered a heavy 5-1 defeat against Celtic, making them one of the underdogs in the tournament’s new single league format.
