Latest Man City vs Club Brugge squad information
Man City continue to be without Oscar Bobb and Rodri, while centre-back Ruben Dias is also sidelined with an adductor injury. Nathan Ake and Jeremy Doku are also at risk. Dias' absence could open the door for new signing Abdukodir Khusanov to make his Premier League debut, but he was at fault for the opening goal in the last game, so John Stones could be given a chance to return in the upcoming match. Omar Marmoush impressed on his debut against Chelsea, but Guardiola still has other options up front, such as Kevin De Bruyne and Savinho.
Club Brugge have just one worry ahead of the game, and that is the condition of captain Hans Vanaken, who is likely to miss out due to illness and the club are working to help him recover. Maxim De Cuyper is likely to start in defence, having been in fine form and has some notable records in the Champions League. Winger Christos Tzolis has similar stats and is likely to start. Goalkeeper Simon Mignolet remains the visitors' first choice.
Latest expected lineup for Man City vs Club Brugge

Club Brugge:
Mignolet; Sabbe, Mechele, Ordonez, De Cuyper; Jashari, Onyedika; Talbi, Vanaken, Tzolis; Nilsson
Latest football commentary on Man City vs Club Brugge
Man City are facing a situation that couldn't be simpler: a win is a ticket to the Champions League play-offs, a draw or loss is the end of the journey. Guardiola's team is gradually overcoming recent difficulties.
Despite leading by two goals against PSG in their previous game, they were beaten 4-2 by a stunning comeback. City are 25th and must beat Club Brugge to keep their hopes alive. A win would also extend City's unbeaten run at home in the Champions League to 34 games, despite their inconsistent domestic form. A 3-1 win over Chelsea at the weekend was a positive sign of their resurgence, but it is by no means a guarantee that they can win even when in good form.
Meanwhile, Club Brugge only need a draw to secure their place in the next round. Before the draw with Juventus in the previous round, they had a 20-match unbeaten streak in all competitions and were full of confidence heading into their upcoming trip to Manchester. Club Brugge have impressed against Juventus, Aston Villa, Celtic and Sporting Lisbon, so they are looking to continue their history by advancing from the group stage. However, history is not on their side as they have suffered two heavy defeats against Man City in the 2021-2022 season and it seems that this is an opportunity for Pep Guardiola to prove his mettle and desire to conquer the Champions League once again.
