Man City Champions League draw in full: 2019-20 group stage opponents revealed

Tom Doyle29 August 2019

Manchester City have a clear route to the last-16 of the Champions League after being drawn against Shakhtar Donetsk, Dinamo Zagreb and Atalanta in Group C.

Man City head into the 2019-20 campaign knowing that the pressure is on Pep Guardiola to deliver on the biggest stage.

City have won the Premier League title for the past two seasons running, but it is no secret that the club's owners have made a first ever European Cup their top target.

Guardiola won the trophy three times at Barcelona - once as a player and twice as a coach - but has yet to go as far as the semi-final stage with City, being knocked out in the quarters (twice) and the round-of-16.

Guardiola's job is unlikely to depend on winning the competition this season, but having assembled such an expensive, talented squad, the onus will be on reaching the last four at the very least this term.
