TV rights and coverage scope
A note on TV rights: according to 01net, the "standard" Canal+ package gives access to Wednesday's headline fixture, but not to all of the European matches shown on the group's sports channels. The site points out, for example, that PSG vs Barcelona, scheduled for Tuesday 20 October (matchday 3), requires a Canal+ Sport subscription. For its part, 20 Minutes says that a paid CANAL+ subscription gives access to Champions League content. The two sources therefore differ on the exact scope of the Champions League offering.
Context around the match
Sporting and off-field context: Manchester City's build-up has been overshadowed by proceedings relating to compliance with Premier League financial rules. 01net reports that a guilty verdict has been handed down and is under appeal, while 20 Minutes mentions controversy surrounding sponsorship deals and potential sanctions. Asked about it at his press conference, Luis Enrique called for results on the pitch to be kept separate from the legal case, while praising the quality of the English side's play.
