This is simply a no contest, as you might expect when the runaway Premier League leaders play the Bundesliga’s tenth-placed team.

City cut through Gladbach with ease! Foden receives the ball on the halfway line, turns sharply and drives forward. He glances up, assessing his options, before sliding a pass through to Gundogan. The prolific German adds another to his tally for the season, waiting for the onrushing Sommer and coolly slotting his finish home.

Embolo is involved again, teeing up Stindl for a shot. His effort is weak, though, and trickles harmlessly through to Ederson.

Gladbach look for a response as Thuram drives forward towards the edge of the box. He slips a pass towards Embolo, who’s crowded out as City defend in numbers.

Brilliant from De Bruyne! Gundogan clips a pass over the top for Mahrez, who cuts in from the right and opts to pass instead of shoot. He tees up De Bruyne, who rifles a left-footed shot past Sommer and in off the bar. An emphatic strike from the Belgian. City are now 3-0 up on aggregate and pretty much out of sight.

De Bruyne lifts a cross into the box from the left but it’s just too high for Foden. City continue to dominate. Other than that Embolo shot, Gladabach have been entirely passive.

Close! Gladbach win the ball in City’s half and quickly break. Embolo is fed through the middle, gets the ball out of his feet and fires off a shot from the edge of the box. It takes a deflection and forces Ederson to save at full stretch. The resulting corner comes to nothing.

Chance! Cancelo, drifting into a central area from the left, receives the ball from Walker and then clips a delicate pass over the top for Foden, who’s unmarked in the box. He prods a first-time effort towards the bottom left corner, but Sommer reacts well to parry it wide.

If any kind of comeback is to materialise here Gladbach will first need to get the ball off City. That’s proving difficult for them early on.

Gladbach are pressing very high up the pitch, clearly eager to get on the front foot. City don’t seem to be concerned and are already dominating possession.

Gladbach get us underway!

The players make their way out at the Puskas Arena. Liverpool beat RB Leipzig and Spurs won against Wolfsberger here. An equally positive result for City will send them through to the last eight of the Champions League…

In case you missed the first leg…

“Champions League is two legs. We got a good result in the first leg but there’s still 90 minutes. I know perfectly the German teams, the physicality, the speed. We have to do a good 90 minutes to win the game. It’s a game, 11 men against 11 men. It will be sensational for us to go through, too.”

“Never happened before and I think it’s not going to happen. We’re just thinking of this one, and after the next one in Goodison Park. After the international break hopefully the players can come back safe and well, because we play for important things.”

Real Madrid host Atalanta tonight with a 1-0 lead from the first leg in Italy. They’ll hope to join PSG, Liverpool, Borussia Dortmund and Porto in the quarter-finals.

Since Marco Rose’s future move to Borussia Dortmund was confirmed, Gladbach have lost six successive games, including a 2-0 defeat against City in the first leg of this Champions League tie. They’ve slipped to tenth in the Bundesliga and look a side bereft of confidence, so a comeback tonight seems highly unlikely.

“After six defeats we want to show that we are still here, that we can play good football. We will do everything to change things. City is a complete package: they play really well pressing, it’s really hard. It’s a really difficult challenge, we lost two goals, but we go again. In football, everything is possible. If we want to have a chance to win this game we have to play with more confidence in our offence.”
