There is nothing to split Manchester City and RB Leipzig ahead of the second leg of their Champions League last-16 clash at the Etihad Stadium.

City have won 21 of their last 23 Champions League home games, drawing the other two, and they head into this game on a four-match winning run.
Leipzig warmed up for their trip to England with a 3-0 win over Borussia Monchengladbach that left them third in the Bundesliga standings, seven points off top.
Kick-off is at 8pm GMT.
Team news

VPN guide
Use a VPN to watch Champions League football from outside your country
If you’re out of the country for a Champions League fixture, then you won't be able to watch on your domestic streaming service as usual. The broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!) and blocks you from watching it. You can use a VPN to get around that, though, without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
A Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs, creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and will let you watch. And all the info going between is entirely encrypted, anonymous and safe – and that's a result.
There are plenty of good-value options out there. For the Champions League, FourFourTwo currently recommends:
ExpressVPN including a 30-day, money-back guarantee
FourFourTwo’s brainy office mates TechRadar love its super speedy connections, trustworthy security and the fact it works with Android, Apple, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, PS5 and loads more. You also get a money-back guarantee, 24/7 support and it's currently available for a knockdown price. Go get it!
