Manchester City is undefeated in 26 UCL matches at Etihad Stadium.

The defending champions have turned their home ground into a fortress in Europe.

The defending Champions League champions are ready to defend their title, and when you look at their home record in the last 26 matches, it's hard to see which team could take points from them at the Etihad. Pep Guardiola has turned the Etihad into a fortress, and they have won 24 out of the last 26 home matches, with the last two ending in draws.

Man City home record in the last 26 UCL games: 
26 games
24 wins
2 draws
0 losses 

Manchester City is also the heavy favorite to defend their title, and it's challenging to see who could break City's home record in the group. Tonight, they face Crvena Zvezda, and they will also host Young Boys and RB Leipzig. Despite winning the long-awaited Champions League title, they remain hungry for more. Guardiola has fostered a culture of winning everything within reach, which is why they are so sharp in every match they play. Erling Haaland is on a mission as well, aiming to break more records, and it's quite possible that he will set some goal-scoring records in this year's tournament.

The only thing Pep Guardiola has almost not experienced is winning the Champions League two times in a row, and in the press conference for today's match, Guardiola stated that it was a dream for him. The journey to continue their streak at the Etihad begins tonight when Crvena Zvezda pays a visit, and if the streak isn't going to be 27 tomorrow, a massive surprise would have to occur.
