Manchester City face Borussia Monchengladbach at the Etihad on Wednesday. Here’s all the info you need to watch.
Manchester City’s match against Borussia Monchengladbach was postponed on Tuesday due to a waterlogged pitch, but it will go ahead on Wednesday.
Manchester City are perfect through four Premier League matches so far this season — including a 2-1 victory in the Manchester Derby at Old Trafford this past Saturday — which leaves them sitting atop the league table. Pep Guardiola has a fully stocked arsenal (pun intended) of attacking options: Sergio Aguero, Nolito, Raheem Sterling and Kevin De Bruyne would strike fear into the heart of most defenses individually; Pep can play them all at the same time if he wants.
Monchengladbach currently sit in 10th place in the Bundesliga, managing three points in two games. Gladbach has garnered more and more attention in the United States over the years due to their penchant for signing high profile USMNT players: Michael Bradley played with them from 2008 to 2011; Fabian Johnson was signed in 2014 and consistently starts. As for Johnson, he doesn’t appear to be intimidated by the match-up with Man City.

With all the attacking options discussed above it will be interesting to see who gets the start in Guardiola’s first Champions League match at the helm for the Citizens. Gladbach will be looking to withstand the onslaught long enough to make City pay on the counter, but that’s probably wishful thinking.
