Manchester City v Sevilla live stream, Wednesday 2 November, 8.00pm
Looking for a Manchester City v Sevilla live stream? We've got you covered.
The damage was done in the first round of fixtures as Manchester City scored 11 goals and picked up the full nine points to take control of their Champions League group.
A hard-fought win over Borussia Dortmund was sandwiched between thrashings of Sevilla and FC Copenhagen to set City well on course for a place in the knockout rounds.
Erling Haaland was at his prolific best with five goals, including an acrobatic winner against his former club from Joao Cancelo’s searching pass.
The Norwegian striker was noticeably reluctant to celebrate against Dortmund in recognition of the role they’ve played in his meteoric rise.
After joining from RB Salzburg in January 2020, he scored an incredible 86 goals in just 89 appearances across all competitions for the German side.
Man City’s quick start in the Champions League gave Guardiola the freedom to rotate, but their usual fluency was lacking as a result.
Consecutive goalless draws with FC Copenhagen and Dortmund ensued despite their dominance of possession in both games.
The challenge now is for City to finish the group stage with a flourish by beating Sevilla, who have collected just five points.
Julen Lopetegui was sacked as manager following a 4-1 defeat at home to Dortmund at the start of last month, with Jorge Sampaoli coming in as his replacement.
The passionate Argentine, known for his aggressive, high-pressing brand of football, previously spent the 2016-17 season in charge of Sevilla.
He led them to fourth in La Liga before leaving to take over his country’s national team ahead of the World Cup in Russia, where they struggled.
The match is on Wednesday 2 November and kicks off at 8.00pm. It will be shown on BT Sport 3.
VPN guide
Use a VPN to watch Champions League football from outside your country
If you’re out of the country for a round of Premier League fixtures, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal if you’ve paid up for a subscription and still want to catch the action without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
But assistance is on hand. To get around that, all you have to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is entirely encrypted – and that's a result.
