Man City - Player To Watch
Erling Haaland, remarkably, has become a punchline over the past couple of months due to his dip in form which has coincided with City's overall dip in form. Still, he remains the world's most potent striker and you wouldn't bet against him getting a goal or two on Tuesday.
Feyenoord - Player To Watch
Igor Paixao earned himself a goal and an assist at the weekend and has been Feyenoord's best attacker this season, with eight goal contributions in the Eredivisie.
Man City vs Feyenoord - Prediction
Five games lost in a row seemed unthinkable under Guardiola at City so six seems even more unlikely. The team is at a very low ebb at the moment, but if they can't overcome injury-struck Feyenoord at home then they really are in a full-blown crisis.
Scoreline prediction - Man City 3-1 Feyenoord
