MANCHESTER CITY will be determined to secure top spot in Group G when they take on Borussia Dortmund – and their not so secret weapon Erling Haaland is expected to help them achieve that.
The Norwegian goal machine returns to Dortmund for the first time since making his £51million switch to the Etihad in the summer.
And he’ll be playing in high spirits after adding another two goals to his incredible goal tally against Brighton on the weekend.
However, Haaland will be well aware that beating BVB on their home turf can be a very tough ask.
Furthermore, England wonderkid Jude Bellingham recently inspired Dortmund to a 5-0 thrashing in their most recent Bundesliga outing.

What is the team news?
Thomas Meunier, Mateu Morey, Mahmoud Dahoud, Jamie Bynoe-Gittens and Sebastien Haller are all ruled out
Borussia Dortmund boss Edin Terzic was forced to substitute Nico Schlotterbeck on the weekend which could see him miss the huge fixture against Manchester City too.
However, Terzic could see Donyell Malen and Marco Reus return to the squad.
Elsewhere, Pep Guardiola will be forced to continue without the services of English duo Kyle Walker and Kalvin Phillips.
Sergio Gomez is suspended following his red card in the last Champions League clash against Copenhagen.
But John Stones is likely to have a part to play after being named on the bench during City’s 3-1 win over Brighton.
