The second legs in the last 16 of the Champions League are staged this week. The reigning European champions will be in action on Wednesday, as Man City look to continue their dominant run of form with another comfortable success against Danish side FC Copenhagen.
Before Betting On Man City vs Copenhagen
It is widely believed that this tie between Man City and Copenhagen is already effectively over, with the Premier League champions having recorded a 3-1 away win in the first clash between the sides. It was an impressive away display by the European champions, with Kevin De Bruyne being among the scorers in the comfortable victory.
That was City’s ninth straight win in the competition, and they could become just the third team in the competition’s history to record ten successive wins. The last side to achieve that feat was Real Madrid in February 2015. Pep Guardiola has an excellent record in two-legged ties after winning an away first leg, progressing from each of his last nine. That includes six successive wins as Man City boss.
City are unbeaten in their last five matches against Copenhagen, recording three wins and playing out two draws. The last clash between the sides at the Etihad was staged in October 2022, with City landing a 5-0 home win against their rivals.
It could be hard to overlook Copenhagen’s poor record away from home against English sides, as they have never won against a Premier League side in seven previous visits. Over that period, they have suffered five defeats, and they have failed to score in each of their last four trips.
