Man City Relentless in 2026/27
Man City are in top form this season after winning eight matches in a row. Erling Haaland is the Citizens’ top scorer in 2026/27 with eight goals in all competitions.
Enzo Maresca’s side won three consecutive league matches, scoring seven, before beating Porto 2-0 in the Champions League. Haaland scored a brace in that victory.
City maintained their winning streak with a 1-0 debry win at Man United and home victories against Norwich 5-0 and Sunderland 5-3.
Maresca’s team beat Liverpool 3-0 at Anfield in their first match since being found guilty of 114 Premier League financial breaches. Haaland scored the opener and Jeremy Doku and Rayan Cherki also got on the scoresheet.
PSG Recovering From a Poor Start to the Season
Champions League title holders PSG had a tough start to the new season and failed to win in four games. The Paris outfit lost twice in that run, 1-0 at Lens and 2-1 against Monaco.
PSG claimed their first victory of the season in the Champions League, beating Slovan Bratislava 6-1. That European triumph started a four-match winning streak as Les Parisiens also beat Brest 1-0 and Marseille 2-1
Luis Enrique’s team continued their upturn in form with a 3-1 victory against Le Mans. PSG allowed 1.43 XG and goals from Lucas Beraldo, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Maghnes Akliouche sealed all three points.
