With Socceroos defender Bailey Wright set to lead Bristol out, manager Lee Johnson has said this Man City team will “etch itself in history as one of the greatest teams to have ever graced the pitches in England.”

Man City has failed to score just once at home all season and that was against another second-tier team in Wolverhampton Wanderers, who took Pep Guardiola’s side to penalties following a 0-0 draw after extra time.
