On Wednesday, Manchester City will face Crvena Zvezda of Serbia to begin their Champions League championship defense. Last season, Manchester City became one of the select few groups to achieve a historic triple. They defeated Inter Milan in the Champions League final the previous year. The current state of Pep Guardiola’s team is outstanding as they aim to repeat the historic feat. At the Etihad Stadium, Manchester City and Crvena Zvezda will face off. Crvena Zvezda have had a solid start to the season. They had a winning streak of four games but slowed down recently, suffering two losses in three games. Manchester City will be aiming to capitalize on their struggle to keep clean sheets.
In the Serbian SuperLiga, Crvena Zvezda’s most recent game ended in a 2-1 defeat to Cukaricki. In the waning moments of the game, Sunday Adetunji scored the winning goal for Cukaricki.
