Is there any team around the world playing better football than Manchester City? Nope, no chance. The English Premier League powerhouse is on an absolute tear and looks bound to win its third EPL title in the past four seasons.
While fans no doubt are ready for that to happen, Man City and Pep Guardiola are also hoping to win their first Champions League crown. Here at Signables, we think this will be the campaign they get things done.

City will have a true test coming up against Borussia Dortmund in the quarterfinals, as they'll go up against Jadon Sancho, Erling Haaland and others. It will be tricky.
With that said, City is considered the favorite to move on and play in the semifinals. What will be key is to see how the rest of the draw plays out. Bayern Munich won the title last season and they're expected to be in a position to do so one again this year.
However, if you've been following Man City throughout 2020-21, you've witnessed the brilliant play of Kevin De Bruyne, Raheem Sterling, Ilkay Gundogan, Phil Foden, John Stones and others.
Before City lost 2-0 to Manchester United earlier this month, Guardiola's men had won a mind-blowing 21 consecutive games. That number is simply unheard of! They've made easy work of their Champions League opponents thus far as well.
There's something about stepping up in primetime situations with this club and we think that will be the case in the Champions League. Look for De Bruyne to keep playing like one of the best midfielders in the world too. He's a technician on the field and will be ready to keep doing his thing. We can't wait to see De Bruyne and Co. make a push for the Champions League crown.
