Pep's Squad Look to Return to Winning Ways in Top Division, Lionesses in Action

Pep Claims Manchester City of Playing with Fear in Defeat to Leverkusen

Manchester City will hope to respond positively when they face Leeds later today after enduring back-to-back matches against Newcastle United in the domestic league and the German side in the Champions League.

Perhaps my expectations exceed their self-belief. It was a good lesson for me, as experienced as I am as a manager it was a good lesson for me for the future.

The Manchester City manager is expected to reinstate those he left out against the Leverkusen when facing Daniel Farke’s side.

Farke's Team Hope to Improve Performance at Manchester

Leeds are seeking to improve their results at the Etihad Stadium with Farke's role in slight jeopardy. His side are near the bottom of the English football, and after facing City, a important stretch awaits for the manager who, recently, earned promotion from the EFL Championship.

To be frank, the current situation is tough; we’re getting a lot of stick. Yet I'm not avoiding this. I knew about how dedicated this club is from the outset. When the going gets tough don’t become manager of Leeds United. I never expected this term to be an straightforward journey.
