Manchester City considers Vitor Reis for lineup against AEK Athens
Summary

Manchester City faces AEK Athens tonight in their UEFA Champions League fixture at the Etihad Stadium. Coach Enzo Maresca has relied on starters Ruben Dias and Marc Guehi but may give them rest due to fatigue. Vitor Reis, who has made limited appearances this season, could start in defense, especially since the team is missing five key players. Reis previously impressed during a loan spell at Girona, and tonight's match presents him with an opportunity to make an impact.
