Man City is about to face the Dutch Feyenoord in the Champions League round five in a little over an hour. This is their chance to break the bad spell and end their 5-long losing streak.
Feyenoord are not pushovers, they had a couple of good games in the league recently and have proven they could be dangerous e.g. by defeating Benfica 3-1 in an away game.
Nevertheless, bookies still have a very high faith in the City, as they're the big favourite with odds at x1.17 (x15.00 for Feyenoord).
And they desperately need to get their confidence back before Sunday's away game against Liverpool, who are now x2.16 favourite, while the odds for the City are x3.20. Losing in Liverpool would be a disaster.
