Guéhi: AEK Athens clash another chance to learn and develop

Marine Guéhi believes Tuesday’s UEFA Champions League match against AEK Athens provides City with an opportunity to advance and grow as a team. The match comes amidst a busy schedule, with City already playing four games in nine days after the resumption of domestic action. Guéhi has played every minute of this sequence, which began with a 3-0 win at Liverpool and included a 4-2 UEFA Champions League loss to Paris Saint-Germain and a 3-2 Premier League victory over Ipswich. City currently sit atop the Premier League table after seven wins out of seven.

Despite conceding nine goals at home in the last three Etihad outings, Guéhi remains optimistic about the team's development under new manager Enzo Maresca. He acknowledges the importance of learning and improving from the mistakes made on the pitch, both individually and collectively, such as working on defensive positioning and understanding the new tactical system. Guéhi also emphasizes the need to focus on recovery, rest, and physical well-being to ensure readiness for the upcoming challenges.

The defender anticipates a tough challenge from AEK Athens, a team known for their strong attack and experienced players. However, he remains confident in his team's ability to perform well and secure a victory. The clash is set for Tuesday 20 October at 20:00 (UK) at the Etihad Stadium, with tickets starting from £35 for adults and £20 for Under-18s. Hospitality packages are also available, with prices starting from £150 per person.
