Manchester City form and stats

City was sent out of Champions League in the quarter-finals last season.

Manchester City's travelling support has been rewarded for their time and money so far this season, having witnessed Manchester City collect 36 points from their 15 away matches in the Premier League. 11 victories and 3 draws have created these points (and only 1 defeat). Total Champions League statistics for Manchester City: 8 wins, 1 draw and 0 losses. The away team travel with confidence. Not since the Tottenham Hotspur game have they lost an away game, meaning City has taken points from ten away matches in a row.

City failed to get anything from their last game, a Premier League home match vs Leeds United that ended with defeat 1-2. Prior to that match, a home win 2-1 against Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League.

City were so close to getting something from the game against Leeds United, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal one minutes into overtime.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the City manager J. Guardiola i Sala as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Chelsea.
