Manchester City begin their Champions League campaign at home to Inter Milan this evening.

Pep Guardiola’s side host the Italian champions for a rematch of the 2023 final of this competition in Istanbul, where the club won Europe’s elite club trophy for the first time.

It is Man City’s first foray into the new-look format of the competition, which will see all 36 participants form a single league table, rather than split into eight groups of four.

City will no doubt be one of the favourites for the tournament and have started the season in typically stunning fashion. The Premier League champions have won all four of their domestic games thus far and star striker Erling Haaland is in red-hot form, having scored nine goals already.

Winning the Champions League again in what could be Guardiola’s last season would be a fitting way for perhaps the greatest manager of the modern era to bow out.

They will begin this continental campaign, however, in slightly different fashion – and not just because of the new format.

Why aren’t Man City wearing their home kit vs Inter Milan?

Indeed, the hosts are tonight wearing a special-edition kit.

The club released their fourth shirt earlier this month to mark the 30th anniversary of Oasis’ debut album, Definitely Maybe.

The iconic Manchester band formed by brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher, who last month announced a record-breaking reunion after a 15-year hiatus, are huge City fans.

"Marking the 30th anniversary of Oasis’ iconic album Definitely Maybe, the special-edition kit draws inspiration from the album cover that defined a generation," said a club statement.
