Champions League: Can Man City qualify for the Round of 16 today? What result do they need?
Pep Guardiola’s City are in the Danish capital to face FC Copenhagen looking for the point that would see them mathematically progress in the competition.
As we reach matchday four of the 2022/23 UEFA Champions League group stage, a handful of teams are on the cusp of mathematically securing a place in the next stage of the competition with Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City one of those few sides.
