Manchester City not get difficult opponent team on 16 phase round but its not guarantee they will have easily opponent on quarter final until semifinal phase, no doubt with Manchester City opportunity will easily qualify to quarter final but if face with top teams such as Bayern Munich or Real Madrid I don't sure with The Citizen for defending their Champion League tittle for this season. Have good news after De Bruyne recovering from injury but still have problem with Erling Haaland has possibility to recovery before first leg match against Copenhagen three weeks later or not.

Erling Haaland is most important part for Manchester City and has small opportunity without him will get highest phase in this season, if can't recovery as soon possible I doubt with their opportunity will lead until final round for this season or not.
