|October 01, 2025
Despite a relatively poor start to the season, City are now seeking a fifth win from six matches in all competitions when they visit the Stade Louis II.
-
Guardiola’s men beat Kevin de Bruyne’s Napoli 2-0 in their first European fixture this campaign, while Monaco were beaten 4-1 by Club Brugge away from home.
City are heading into this match following a 5-1 win over Burnley last weekend, when Haaland netted two goals. The 25-year-old now has an astonishing 14 goals in just eight games for club and country this season.
In total, he has 133 goals in 155 games in all competitions since joining City in 2022.

“You know, these kind of guys. Messi and Cristiano have been doing it for 15, 20 years. Every season.
