REF’s picks

Manchester City should dominate this Champions League fixture at the Etihad Stadium and cover a substantial handicap against AEK Athens. Pep Guardiola's side will be eager to bounce back strongly after their recent European defeat to Paris Saint-Germain, and their attacking depth makes them heavy favourites. However, AEK have shown they can occasionally find the net on their travels, meaning a blowout depends entirely on City maintaining their defensive intensity for the full ninety minutes.

1Manchester City possess overwhelming attacking quality and need a convincing response following their loss to PSG.
2Playing at home in the Champions League usually brings out City's most dominant and relentless performances.
3AEK Athens are capable of absorbing pressure and could potentially nick a late goal if City rotate their squad late on.
