Manchester City shines away at Bodø/Glimt as Guardiola aims for 25 Champions League away wins with a single club

At 01:45 on January 21st Beijing time, Manchester City will take on Norway's Bodø/Glimt in the 7th group stage match of the Champions League. While this game may appear ordinary or a simple contest of strength over weakness for City and its squad, it holds the potential for Guardiola to achieve a historic milestone.

If Manchester City secures an away victory at Bodø/Glimt, Guardiola could reach 25 Champions League away wins coaching City. Historically, only two managers have achieved 25 away wins with a single club in the Champions League, those beingSir Alex Ferguson’s 39 away wins with Manchester United and Arsène Wenger’s 30 away wins with Arsenal in the Champions League, and Guardiola is on track to become the third manager to join this elite group.

Under Guardiola, Manchester City achieved an unprecedented four consecutive Premier League titles, a historic feat in English football. However, in the last two seasons, City has faced challenges; last season they won no trophies, were surprisingly eliminated by an Asian team in the Club World Cup this summer, and suffered a heavy defeat to Manchester United in the recent derby. Currently in a rebuilding phase, Manchester City looks to Guardiola to guide them out of this slump and complete their resurgence.

The Blue Moon hangs high once again, with the title within reach. Keep pushing, Guardiola! Rise up, Manchester City!
