The hosts are looking to recover from a rough patch experienced in the last months of 2024 and are showing clear improvement. Before the 4-2 loss to PSG in midweek Champions League action, they had gone six matches unbeaten across all competitions.
Despite the loss, City’s current form in the Premier League is positive. Their last defeat was on December 21st to Aston Villa. Since then, they’ve had two draws and three wins, the most recent being a 6-0 away thrashing of Ipswich Town.
