Why this match?
Barcelona started their European campaign with a 5-1 win at home. No club goes out on a night like this, but every result counts towards the table that decides who reaches the knockout rounds.
Barcelona and Manchester City are clubs that many fans only ever see on television. On this night, you can watch both of them walk onto the pitch at Camp Nou.
Barcelona have won the competition five times. City spent years chasing the trophy before finally lifting it in 2023.
Yet the clubs rarely meet. Their last competitive match was in 2016, so this is a rare chance to see them face each other in person.
The last time City came to Camp Nou in the Champions League, Lionel Messi scored a hat-trick in a 4-0 Barcelona win. City won the return match 3-1 two weeks later.
Ten years have passed since then. Now the fixture returns to Camp Nou.

Your digital ticket will not arrive immediately after booking. It will be emailed a few days before the match.
The ticket will show the entrance you need and your seat details. Keep it ready on your phone when you reach the stadium.
Where you’ll be sitting
The Tribuna is the main stand along one side of the pitch. Your seat will be in its lower section, in the first ring above pitch level.
You will be close to the touchline and still have enough height to follow play across the pitch.
What the night is like
The build-up begins in Les Corts, where Barça shirts and scarves fill the streets leading to Camp Nou. The 21:00 kick-off gives you time to arrive early and take in the atmosphere outside.
Inside, the warm-up becomes part of the night. From the lower Tribuna, you can pick out your favourite players and take photos as both teams prepare near the touchline.
As kick-off approaches, Barça supporters raise their scarves for the Cant del Barça. The teams then line up for the Champions League anthem.
Once the match begins, you can see the players’ speed and movement in a way television cannot show. A Barcelona goal brings the lower Tribuna to its feet, and you share the celebration with everyone around you.
