After back-to-back Premier League defeats to Aston Villa and Brighton and Hove Albion, which came either side of a Carabao Cup victory against the latter, Maresca will be hoping to straighten his side’s form on Wednesday against RB Leipzig.

Despite questionable form domestically, Manchester City’s UEFA Champions League run this season has provided significant hope amongst supporters. After beating FC Porto on the opening day of this season’s competition, City were beaten by Paris Saint-Germain at the Etihad Stadium but showed optimism in defeat that produced more positives than negatives.

Then, at home again two weeks ago, Maresca guided his side to a cruising 5-1 victory over AEK Athens during a game wherein Phil Foden scored a scintillating hat-trick.
