What They're Saying

AS Roma manager Rudi Garcia (via UEFA): "In normal circumstances, we would be out [with five points from five games], but we are here to get a historic result. Like I said before the CSKA [Moscow] match, we have to enjoy the game and do the best we can. It would be amazing if we won. We want to go through. We have to be focused on this aim. It's a difficult game, but I'm quietly confident."

Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini: "We are an attacking team and we are not going to change anything now. In the first part of the season, we weren't playing very well. Now, it's better. Both sides want to qualify, though. Roma are a big team in Italy and have a very good squad. It's as important for them as it for us. It is a very difficult group, with the champions of Germany and Russia. We knew it would be really hard."

Tactical Preview

Player to Watch: With Sergio Aguero succumbing to injury (knee), Manchester City turn to Edin Dzeko. The 28-year-old is yet to open his 2014 Champions League account, but does boast two goals in Premier League play.

AS Roma's Projected Lineup (4-3-3): De Sanctis; Maicon, Astori, Manolas, Holebas; Pjanić, Keita, Nainggolan; Gervinho, Totti, Ljajić

Manchester City's Projected Lineup (4-2-3-1): Hart; Zabaleta, Kompany, Mangala, Clichy; Fernando, Fernandinho; Milner, Jovetić, Nasri; Dzeko
