Red Star Belgrade will take on Manchester City in the Champions League group stage on Wednesday. Man City have already progressed to the knockout phase as group winners but will be looking to keep their 100 per cent win record intact. The hosts, on the other hand, are bottom and winless in the group stage and will need a mid-week miracle.
City will be keen to return to picking up wins every week as they have only registered two wins in their last six games. While Red Star Belgrade have conceded only one goal in their last three matches, going up against the Premier League side will be a different challenge altogether.
Here GOAL brings you everything you need to know about how to watch, including TV channel, streaming details and more.
