Is Man City v Sparta Prague on TV tonight? Kick-off time, channel and how to watch Champions League fixture
Manchester City host Sparta Prague in the Champions League at the Etihad Stadium looking to take a step closer to the last 16.
Pep Guardiola’s side are on a high after their dramatic late win at Wolves at the weekend thanks to John Stones’ stoppage-time header.
And City, one of the main contenders for this year’s competition, sit eighth in the table and among the seeded sides for the round of 16 after two rounds. They dropped points at home to Inter Milan to begin their campaign, only to respond with a thumping win at Slovan Bratislava.
The Czech side are also on four points though and sit 10th, following a promising start. Lars Friis’s side beat RB Salzburg and then drew at Stuttgart.

Team news
Rodri (ACL) and Oscar Bobb (leg fracture) are long-term absentees for City, while Kyle Walker (fitness) and Kevin De Bruyne (groin) are major doubts.
Nathan Ake was back on the bench at Molineux, so the Dutch defender could feature, but he may not be ready to start, meaning Josko Gvardiol could remain at left-back.
If Guardiola rotates his side, then the likes of Stefan Ortega, Manuel Akanji, Matheus Nunes, Jack Grealish and Phil Foden could all feature from the start.
Sparta Prague’s Imanol Garcia (knee) is injured and ineligible and Elias Cobbaut (illness) is a major doubt.
Predicted line-ups
Man City XI: Ederson; Lewis, Akanji, Dias, Gvardiol; Gundogan, Nunes; Bernardo, Foden, Grealish; Haaland
