Man City welcome French side Marseille to the Etihad Stadium this week for a Champions League clash live on BT Sport
Manchester City welcome French side Marseille to the Etihad this week in the final round of group stage Champions League fixtures.
With top spot in Group C secure, Pep Guardiola's side will be hoping to end the round-robin phase on a high ahead of a busy festive period.
City, who are yet to break a sweat on the European front so far, will be more than confident of tucking another three points neatly away in their back pockets.
The French visitors, meanwhile, will be desperate to avoid the wooden spoon in the group and will be hoping to catch an already-qualified City off guard.
With a spot in the Europa League Round-of-32 still on offer, it is a much more important game for Marseille than it is for City.
