Pep's Squad Seek to Bounce Back in Top Division, Women's National Team in Action

Guardiola Accuses Manchester City of Playing with Fear in Leverkusen Loss

Pep Guardiola's side are aiming to bounce back when they host Leeds later today after enduring consecutive defeats against Newcastle in the English top flight and Bayer Leverkusen in the Champions League.

It's possible I rate them more highly than they do themselves. This served as a valuable lesson, despite my managerial experience it was a good lesson for me for the future.

Pep is likely to recall those he left out against the Bundesliga side when facing Daniel Farke’s side.

The Whites Aim to Regain Momentum at City's Home Ground

Leeds hope to also find some form at the Etihad Stadium with the manager's job in some doubt. His side are 18th in the table of the top division, and after this match, a pivotal week approaches for the German who, only last spring, earned promotion from the EFL Championship.

Truthfully, it’s not very enjoyable at the moment; there's plenty of negativity. However, I won't shy away. I understood how fervent this club is from the outset. If you're not up for the pressure don’t become manager of Leeds United. I never expected this season to be an straightforward journey.
