In the last match of the group stage of the Champions League, Manchester City hosts Red Star. The situation in this group is already widely known and this game has no significance in terms of results. As the champion of Serbia, Red Star qualified directly for the Champions League, and the team was assembled with great ambitions, knowing that they will compete in the group stage of the most elite European competition. However, one gets the impression that the results could have been better. The team from Belgrade enters the last round without a chance to get the third place that leads to the 1/16 Finals of the Europa League, which we believe was the primary goal of the team after the draw in Nyon in August. In the previous round, they played against Young Boys, in a game that was "all or nothing" for them. A win in that match took them to third place, a draw would have kept them alive and everything would have depended on the results in this round, while a defeat meant extinguishing all hopes for the European spring. Unfortunately for all the fans, they were defeated 2:0, but there is no doubt that they themselves are to blame for that defeat. The team from Belgrade was arguably the better opponent, but they did not use a huge number of 100% chances to score. The home team punished it, and showed that in Europe, mistakes are paid dearly, and that if you want to play at that level, concentration must be necessary in every segment of the game. After four rounds, Manchester City secured a mathematical passage to the next stage, and with a triumph against RB Leipzig, first place, which guarantees them an easier draw for the 1/8 finals of the Champions League. However, despite this, one gets the impression that City is in a slight result crisis, mostly due to the performance in the Premier League, and Pep Guardiola's team has played four league games without a triumph. After a 4:4 draw with Chelsea, City also drew with Liverpool 1:1 and Tottenham 3:3, and in the previous round they finally ended their bad streak with a 2:1 away win against Luton. It should be taken into account that Manchester did not excel in that match either, and that they won after a reversal, considering that Luton had a 1:0 advantage at halftime. After 16 rounds played in the Premier League, the difference between the leaders Liverpool and the fourth-placed Manchester City is only four points, and there is no doubt that an exciting continuation of the best league in the world awaits us. Precisely for this reason, Guardiola decided for this match to give a chance to players who don't play that often. Red Star has a quality team and they are able to provide a very good game, especially in front of their fans. A game in which they do not have the burden of points can relieve them of pressure and provide a game even better than expected.

在欧冠小组赛的最后一场比赛中，曼城主场迎战红星。这个小组的情况已经众所周知，这场比赛对结果没有任何意义。作为塞尔维亚的冠军，红星队直接获得了欧冠的参赛资格，这支球队聚集在一起，雄心勃勃，因为他们知道自己将参加欧洲最精英赛事的小组赛。然而，人们得到的印象是，结果本可以更好。这支来自贝尔格莱德的球队进入最后一轮，没有机会获得进入欧联杯1/16决赛的第三名，我们相信这是这支球队在8月份尼翁抽签后的主要目标。在上一轮比赛中，他们与年轻男孩队比赛，这场比赛对他们来说是“全有或全无”。那场比赛的胜利将他们带到第三名，一场平局将使他们活下去，一切都将取决于这一轮的结果，而一场失败意味着欧洲之春的希望破灭。对所有球迷来说不幸的是，他们以2:0被击败，但毫无疑问，他们自己应该为这场失败负责。来自贝尔格莱德的球队可以说是更好的对手，但他们并没有利用大量100%的机会得分。主队惩罚了它，并表明在欧洲，错误是要付出沉重代价的，如果你想在那种水平上比赛，在比赛的每个环节都必须集中注意力。4轮之后，曼城队在数学上确保了进入下一阶段的资格，并在对阵莱比锡RB的比赛中取得了第一名，这保证了他们在欧冠1/8决赛中更容易抽签。然而，尽管如此，人们还是会觉得曼城陷入了轻微的结果危机，这主要是由于在英超联赛中的表现，瓜迪奥拉的球队已经打了四场联赛没有取得胜利。在4:4战平切尔西之后，曼城又分别1:1战平利物浦和3:3战平热刺，在上一轮比赛中，曼城客场2:1战胜卢顿，结束了他们的连胜。我们应该考虑到，那场比赛中，曼彻斯特也没有表现出色，他们是在逆转后获胜的，考虑到卢顿在半场结束时有1:0的优势。经过16轮的英超比赛，领头羊利物浦和排名第四的曼城之间的差距只有4分，毫无疑问，世界上最好的联赛的精彩延续在等待着我们。正是出于这个原因，瓜迪奥拉决定在这场比赛中给那些不经常上场的球员一个机会。红星拥有一支优秀的球队，他们有能力提供一场精彩的比赛，尤其是在他们的球迷面前。一款没有分数负担的游戏可以减轻他们的压力，并提供比预期更好的游戏。
