City fell to a stunning 4-0 loss at home to Spurs last weekend, and that result made it five losses in a row for the champions.
They sit eight points behind league leaders Liverpool, and though their track record suggests that they’re not out of the race, recent performances will have worried Guardiola.
City sit 10th in the table for the Champions League’s new league phase, but they face a Feyenoord side that is struggling somewhat in the Eredivisie, so the match should provide the perfect opportunity for the Cityzens to get back on track.
Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the match.
When is the match?
Man City host Feyenoord at 8pm GMT on Tuesday, 26 November at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester.
Where can I watch?
The game will be shown live on Amazon Prime Video, with coverage starting at 6.30pm GMT. Subscribers can also watch via the Amazon Prime Video app.

What is the team news?
Kevin De Bruyne came off the bench at the weekend and may be fit enough to start tonight, though he may not be risked in a game City should win easily.
Jeremy Doku sat out the loss against Spurs, though it is not known if he’s managed to recover from a thigh injury yet, while Jack Grealish, who was also encouraging in his cameo against Spurs, could also be in contention to start.
Mateo Kovacic was recently ruled out for around a month, so he’ll miss out, and Gundogan could deputise in his position alongside Rico Lewis as they did at the weekend.
Guardiola has a few more central defensive options to pick from now, with Nathan Ake, Manuel Akanji and John Stones back in action, though Ruben Dias remains out.
Feyenoord have a few major doubts before the game, with captain Quinten Timber (brother of Arsenal’s Jurrien) a doubt alongside starting ‘keeper Justin Bijlow and Mexican striker Santiago Gimenez.
In addition, Ivorian midfielder Chris-Kevin Nadje is suspended.
Predicted line-ups
Man City XI: Ederson; Walker, Simpson-Pusey, Ake, Gvardiol; Lewis, Gundogan, Nunes; Doku, Haaland, Foden.
