Match Stats

The "Sky Blues" claimed their sixth consecutive Slovakian league title last season. In their previous European campaign, Slovan was knocked out in the first stage of the Conference League playoffs, losing both legs to Austria's Sturm Graz – 1-4 and 0-1.

In this year's Champions League qualification, the team overcame opponents such as Struga, Celje, and Cyprus' APOEL. In the decisive round, Slovan faced Denmark's Midtjylland, and after a 1-1 away draw, they secured a 3-2 home victory in Bratislava.

In the domestic league, the "Sky Blues" occupy their usual first position after eight rounds, leading Žilina by four points. In their most recent match, Slovan won 4-2 away against Michalovce. It's worth noting that Slovan began their Champions League campaign with a heavy 1-5 defeat to Celtic.The "Citizens" are rightfully regarded as England's strongest team, having won the Premier League for the fourth consecutive season. However, Pep Guardiola's side has encountered minor issues in the new campaign. For instance, in the previous round, City barely avoided defeat against Arsenal, drawing 2-2.

Last weekend, Manchester City played away against Newcastle, and despite taking the lead, they allowed the "Magpies" to equalize, finishing 1-1. Liverpool capitalized on these slip-ups, overtaking City by one point in the standings. In the opening round of the Champions League, City hosted Inter and played out a goalless 0-0 draw.

Prediction: Manchester City WIN
