Manchester City vs Paris Saint-Germain Competition – Champions League Stadium: Etihad Stadium Date: 14th October 2026 Kick-off time – 20:00 GMT
The Etihad Stadium stages a meeting of two clubs with perfect starts on Wednesday night, as Manchester City host Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League. City opened their league phase with a 2-0 win away at Porto on 8 September, and PSG answered a day later with a 6-1 home win over Slovan Bratislava, so both sit on three points in the 36-team standings. Each arrives off a weekend victory too: City won 3-0 at Liverpool in the Premier League, while PSG beat Le Mans 3-1 at home in Ligue 1. The sides have met five times in the Champions League since 2021, with the record between them close enough that either could take a second straight win here. Kick-off in Manchester is at 8pm UK time.
Manchester City have won each of their last five matches, scoring 16 goals and conceding three. The latest was Sunday’s 3-0 win away at Liverpool in the Premier League, one of four clean sheets in the run. Before that, Sunderland were beaten 5-3 at home on 20 September, the only game in which City conceded, and a 5-0 home win over Norwich in the EFL Cup came three days earlier on 17 September. Further back, they won 1-0 away at Manchester United in the league on 13 September, and 2-0 away at Porto in their Champions League opener on 8 September. Three of the five were played away from home, and City won all three without letting a goal in. At the Etihad Stadium itself, the two home wins in the sample came by a combined 10-3.
PSG have won four of their last five, scoring 13 goals and conceding five across all competitions. Saturday brought a 3-1 home win over Le Mans in Ligue 1. Two narrow wins sit behind that: 2-1 away at Marseille on 20 September and 1-0 away at Brest a week before. The 6-1 home win over Slovan Bratislava in the Champions League on 9 September is the biggest margin of the five, a thumping by any measure. The only defeat is the oldest result, a 2-1 home loss to Monaco in Ligue 1 on 4 September, and PSG have not lost since. Both of their away league fixtures in the sample ended in victories.
Manchester City hold a narrow edge in the five Champions League meetings on record, with three wins to PSG’s two and no draws, and the goals are level at 8-8. The most recent was PSG’s 4-2 home win on 22 January 2025, and before that, City won 2-1 at home on 24 November 2021. The home side won four of the five, the exception being City’s 2-1 win in Paris on 28 April 2021. City also won 2-0 at home on 4 May 2021, so both visits to the Etihad Stadium in the sample ended with a City victory, and PSG are yet to win in Manchester across these meetings.
PSG sit first in the league phase standings on three points with a goal difference of +5, while City are eighth on three points with +2. A win would take City to six points, though their position would depend on results elsewhere on matchday two.
