Manchester City vs. Club Brugge 2025 Champions League Odds, Time, and Prediction
Manchester City vs. Club Brugge is a crucial game for Pep Guardiola’s men if they wish to advance to the next phase of the 2024-25 Champions League. Only a win on Wednesday, January 29 would get them to the knockouts

Manchester City is one of only two former champions of the UEFA Champions League that are below the knockout zone (below the 24th place). The other one is Red Star a.k.a., Crvena Zvezda, which won the title in 1991 when this competition was still called the European Cup.
Knowing this, it would be a huge disappointment if Pep Guardiola’s men failed to advance to the knockout stage. In fact, it would be the first time since 2013 that the Cityzens didn’t go past the group phase. Can they avoid such humiliation?

No Margin for Error for Manchester City Against Club Brugge
The Sky Blues from Manchester are just one place behind the playoff zone, with 8 points in 7 games. They have two points fewer than Sporting CP, PSG, and Stuttgart. The last two of those will meet in the final round of the group phase.
If one of them wins, the other team will get leapfrogged by Manchester City if these guys beat Club Brugge.
If the game in question ends in a draw, both PSG and Stuttgart will have 11 points. With a win over Club Brugge, Man City would also have 11 points, but Pep’s men would have a better score differential than both of them.
Actually, thanks to a better score difference, Manchester City would also leapfrog Club Brugge with a win on Wednesday. Any other result would mean staying below the 24th spot.
Can Club Brugge Crush Man City’s Dreams?
Although there is a chance that Club Brugge would drop out of the knockout zone – especially if they get hammered by Man City – such a scenario doesn’t seem very plausible.
For such a thing to happen, many things would have to go wrong for the Belgians. Not only would they need to lose big, but Benfica would need to win some points against Juventus, Sporting would need to beat Bologna, and Stuttgart and PSG would need to play a draw.
Club Brugge players know this, which is why they’re probably not stressing too much about what’s going to happen on January 29. This, however, doesn’t mean they’re not going to give their utmost against the Cityzens.
They’re in good form and their roster is made of some pretty decent players, especially in the final third. Knowing that Man City conceded 13 goals in their last four UCL games, you can be certain that the boys from Brugges will try to take advantage of their poor defending.
Manchester City vs. Club Brugge Prediction
This is the most important game for Manchester City in the 2024-25 campaign (at least, so far). They have no other option but to win this game, which is what they’re definitely capable of. But given that their form has been strange this season, we expect to see them struggle.
It won’t be an easy game, and we might even see Club Brugge score a few goals, but in the end, it’s Pep Guardiola’s men who will almost certainly win. A win for Manchester City seems like one of the safest betting options of the entire month.
