The last time City visited Germany. The Manchester team drew 0-0 with Borussia Dortmund in their last visit to Germany: it was on October 25, 2022, for the group stage of this Champions League.
City’s three defeats. Guardiola’s men reach the last 16 of the Champions League with three players less: John Stones, Kevin De Bruyne and Aymeric Laporte are out. This will force a change in formation: the English will start with four defenders, instead of the usual three.
