European nights are back as Manchester City prepared to kick-off their latest charge for Champions League glory against Sevilla at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan Stadium on Tuesday.

Having reached the showpiece two years ago – before losing to Chelsea – City made it to the semi-finals last term where they came unstuck against eventual winners Real Madrid. But can Pep Guardiola and his star-studded squad finally end their European hoodoo this campaign?

After winning a fourth Premier League title in five seasons, Guardiola opted to freshen up his squad this summer with Stefen Ortega, Sergio Gomez, Manuel Akanji, Kalvin Phillips and Norway sensation Erling Haaland all sworn in to bolster their Champions League hopes.
