Man City vs Bayer Leverkusen — Recent Form Snapshot

Manchester City come into this tie after a setback against Newcastle in the Premier League, but their underlying numbers at home remain outstanding. Guardiola’s side have produced a long run of Champions League performances at the Etihad with regular multi-goal wins built on sustained territorial pressure and high shot volume.

In Europe this season, City have already put four past Borussia Dortmund and have consistently created enough chances to win matches comfortably. Their attack continues to spread goals across multiple forwards and midfielders, maintaining threat even when one or two key names are below their best on the night.

Leverkusen arrive in excellent domestic shape, having surged up the Bundesliga table under Kasper Hjulmand. A 6–0 win over Heidenheim and a 3–1 success at Wolfsburg highlight a side that is playing with real attacking confidence, with frequent contributions from wide areas and midfield runners supporting the central striker.

• Man City recent (all comps): strong home sequence with regular high-margin wins and consistent chance creation, despite occasional away slips in the league.
• Man City in Europe: unbeaten at home in the Champions League league phase for a long stretch, frequently scoring at least twice against high-level opposition.
• Leverkusen recent: seven wins from their last nine matches in all competitions, with only one defeat and several dominant attacking displays.
• Leverkusen away: confident on the road, but still occasionally open at the back when committing numbers forward against top-class opponents.
