Manchester City travel to the Rhineland looking to extend their winning streak, as they take on Borussia Dortmund in the UEFA Champions League.
Over the weekend, Manchester City bounced back from their loss at Anfield, with a dominant win against Brighton.
The scoring started in the middle of the first-half after Ederson delivered a long range pass to a sprinting Erling Haaland.

The 22 year-old broke free from a far-up Robert Sanchez, before colliding with Adam Webster, as he sent the ball into the back of the net to put the Cityzens ahead.
City’s second goal of the half would occur in the dying embers, as Bernardo Silva was tripped by Lewis Dunk in the penalty box. Haaland emphatically slotted away the penalty, as he doubled City's lead, and brought his Premier League goal count to 17.
Brighton would find their way back into the game in the 52nd minute, as Leandro Trossard scorched a ball past a diving Ederson.

After 20 minutes of a closely contested game, Kevin De Bruyne would end the Seagulls' comeback hopes, as he beamed the ball into the top right corner of the goal, further extending the Blues' lead.
The three points which City picked up against Brighton bring them to within two points of Arsenal after their draw with Southampton on Sunday.
On the other side of the ticket in midweek sit Borussia Dortmund, who had quite the weekend in the Bundesliga, beating VfB Stuttgart 5-0.

The offensive display would include a brace from Jude Bellingham, as well as single goal contributions from Niklas Sule, Giovanni Reyna, and Youssofa Moukoko.
When the two sides met back in September, the Blues came out on top of the Black and Yellows after goals from John Stones and Erling Haaland.
