Football lovers in Kenya are in for a massive Champions League night as Manchester City host Borussia Dortmund in a clash of the only two teams boasting seven points from three group games. With both sides unbeaten so far in the campaign, this fixture promises fireworks, drama, and world-class football.
🔥 Match Overview
Manchester City will feel frustrated not to arrive in this match with a perfect record after throwing away the lead twice against Monaco on matchday two. Still, Pep Guardiola’s side have responded ruthlessly — winning five of their last six games in all competitions and staying firmly in the chase behind Premier League leaders Arsenal.
Most importantly, City have turned the Etihad into a fortress: 22 unbeaten UCL home group matches (W19, D3) since 2018!
Dortmund, meanwhile, arrives in England full of confidence after grinding out a 1-0 away win at Augsburg, backed by significant momentum this season. They have only been beaten by Bayern Munich in all competitions so far (W10, D3), and with four goals scored in every UCL game this campaign, they are as lethal as they are fearless.
