Copenhagen is more likely to lose against Manchester City. But since this is a goal ball game, nothing can be said for sure.
Copenhagen's performance in the group stage was good. And they have proved that this team is in no way to be underestimated. If Manchester City can continue their great performance this season as well as last season then I would say City will win against Copenhagen. However, Manchester City's performance has also been somewhat erratic and weak this season. However, De Bruyne has been included in the squad after a long injury layoff. But we are still not sure if he can play well. So it's going to be tough for City to win against Copenhagen.
Everyone is quick with predictions when we have a game where the powers are so imbalanced between two contenders, but in this case there is a good reason to come up with a quick prediction. I think it would be the surprise of the century if Copenhagen kicks Manchester City out of the Champions League.

Really imagine that would happen. The whole world would be sitting in front of their TVs with shocked faces like never before. And Denmark would celebrate a party like never before, probably as if they had just won the World Cup. Cheesy

I agree with you. If Copenhagen can win against Manchester City, and if Manchester City loses against a team like Copenhagen, it will be one of the biggest shocks of the century. But it cannot be said that there is absolutely no possibility. Because we often see such surprises in the Champions League. We often see lesser teams win against the favorites in the Champions League.
This is why Guardiola should not underestimate the Copenhagen team. Guardiola is a very experienced coach. He probably won't underestimate the opponent even if it's weak. And will do your best to win.
