How to watch Slovan Bratislava vs Man City - TV channel, live stream details and kick-off time

by · Manchester Evening News

Manchester City return to Champions League action tonight as they take on Slovan Bratislava in Slovakia.

Pep Guardiola's star-studded side will be looking for their first win in the revamped competition this season after playing out a 0-0 draw with Inter Milan in their last outing. The game comes after the club were held to a 1-1 draw against Newcastle United in the Premier League last weekend.

Bratislava came out 4-2 winners in their domestic clash against Michalovce on Friday night. They will go into this game as clear underdogs, though. Their first Champions League outing saw them fall to a 5-1 away defeat against Scottish champions Celtic - and City will be a marked step up from that.
