Manchester City is on a quest for footballing immortality, aiming to achieve what no other team in Premier League history has done before – win the Treble back to back. The upcoming fixtures for Pep Guardiola’s men will play a crucial role in determining whether they can achieve this remarkable feat.

The journey begins with a highly anticipated clash against their city rivals, Manchester United, this Sunday. Following this, they are set to face FC Copenhagen in the Champions League, where they are expected to secure their spot in the quarter-finals. The league fixtures that follow include matches against league leaders Liverpool, Newcastle, Arsenal, and Aston Villa.

Guardiola’s focus is undoubtedly on the Manchester Derby, a fixture that has historically been a challenging one for City. The clash is often described as control against chaos, with United posing a significant threat. However, this presents an opportunity for City to make a bold statement. Despite their recent victories, including narrow wins against Brentford and Bournemouth, City’s goal difference is the smallest among the top three teams.

Liverpool’s dramatic last-minute victory over Nottingham Forest has put City four points behind the league leaders, adding further significance to the upcoming Derby. For United, it is not just about pride but also about staying in contention for a Champions League spot, with teams like Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur pulling away in the race.

In recent meetings, City has had the upper hand against United, winning four out of their last five encounters. However, football is unpredictable, and anything can happen in a Derby match. As the two Manchester giants prepare to face off once again, fans can expect a thrilling and intense battle on the field.

As the stakes continue to rise in the race for footballing glory, all eyes will be on Manchester City as they strive to etch their names in the history books with a back-to-back Treble triumph.
