Manchester City have been in devastating form in the Premier League and they will look to continue this in their Champions League outing against Shakhtar Donetsk on Tuesday evening.

Pep Guardiola’s side have scored 21 goals in their opening six Premier League contests, and also hammered Feyenoord 4-0 in their only European outing so far.

Shakhtar have also started the season well, sitting top of the Ukrainian league and beating Napoli in their first Group F match.

The winner on Tuesday will open up an early three-point lead in Group F and put themselves in prime position to qualify for the knockout stages.
