But they go up against former Liverpool goalkeeper Grabara in the Copenhagen goal.

However, the players may not recognise him due to his changed facial appearance.

Why is Kamil Grabara wearing a mask?

Kamil Grabara wears a mask having sustained a facial fracture in 2022.

The horror injury came in collision with Alborg's Mathias Ross where the two clashed heads.

Grabara has worn a blue mask ever since, most notably in last season's match against reigning champions Manchester City.

What did Pep Guardiola say about the mask?

Manchester City thumped Copenhagen 5-0 in a Group G encounter last campaign.

But Pep Guardiola praised the Kamil Grabara for his individual performance.

Pep said: "He [Grabara] made an incredible performance.

"I don't know if it was because of the mask or something!"
