Looking for a Copenhagen vs Manchester City live stream? We've got you covered with our handy guide.

Manchester City head to Copenhagen knowing that a fourth win from four in Group G will send them through to the Champions League round of 16.

Pep Guardiola's side thrashed the Danish champions 5-0 at the Etihad Stadium last week, with – you guessed it – Erling Haaland bagging a brace. City enter this encounter on a six-match winning run in all competitions; they've scored four or more goals in four of those games, beating Southampton 4-0 at home in the Premier League last time out.

Copenhagen, by contrast, have lost four and won just one of their last seven. Hit hard by injuries, Jacob Neestrup's team have mustered only five goals in their previous 10 outings. Defeat here coupled with victory for Borussia Dortmund against Sevilla in the night's other Group G fixture will eliminate them from the Champions League.

Team news

Copenhagen are missing no fewer than eight players for this match: as well as long-term absentees Zeca and Akinkunmi Amoo, Andreas Cornelius, Rasmus Falk, Orri Oskarsson, Mamoudou Karamoko, Khouma Babacar and Denis Vavro are all out.

As for City, Guardiola remains without the services of Kyle Walker, John Stones and Kalvin Phillips.

VPN guide

Use a VPN to watch Champions League football from outside your country

If you’re out of the country for a round of Champions League fixtures, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal if you’ve paid up for a subscription and still want to catch the action without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.

But assistance is on hand. To get around that, all you have to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is entirely encrypted – and that's a result.

There are plenty of good-value options out there, including:
