City v AS Monaco | Tuesday 20 January, 19:00 (UK) | PL International Cup, live on CITY+
Staying with the PL International Cup, we will then welcome AS Monaco to Manchester for our final group game.
With only the top two teams qualifying for the knockouts, City will need positive results against RB Leipzig and AS Monaco if we are to continue in the competition.

Everton v City | Friday 23 January, 19:00 (UK) | Premier League 2, live on CITY+
To complete the first month of 2026 for our EDS, we travel to Everton in Gameweek 11 of the Premier League 2.
Before playing Burnley, City sit 13th with 13 points. Wilkinson’s side will be wanting to solidify our place in the top 16, the knockout spots, with just two points separating us and 17th.
But our trip to the Toffees won’t be easy, with the Merseyside outfit in 16th, one point behind City, our Friday night clash will be an exciting one.
