Juventus and Manchester City will face off in the sixth round

Juventus and Manchester City will face off in the sixth round of the Champions League.

The match, which starts at 21:00, will be played at the “Allianz Stadium”.

The two teams will fight for victory, as they each have eight points and hope to advance to the knockout stage without too many problems.

The last time the teams faced each other was at Stadio Delle Alpi 2015 and Mario Mandzukic’s goal in the 18th minute was enough to settle matters.

The match was played in December of that year with the reverse game in the group stage of the Champions League being played in September, which Juve won 2-1. Mandzukic was again on the scoresheet alongside Alvaro Morata.

Those goals turned the game after Giorgio Chiellini put through his own net to give City a 57th-minute lead.

This is only the seventh meeting between the clubs, with Juve winning three of the encounters and City taking the spoils just once.

That win was in the old UEFA Cup in September 1976 when City won 1-0 in Manchester in the early stages of the competition but Juve won the return leg 2-0.

Two draws came from the 2010 meetings in the group stage of the Europa League, while Juve have won the last two fixtures – which were group-stage encounters in the Champions League in 2015.

This is only the seventh meeting between the clubs, with Juve winning three of the encounters and City taking the spoils just once.
