Manchester’s twin passions of football and music will again coincide on Tuesday.
City host Dutch side Feyenoord in the Champions League in a 20:00 kic-off.
At the same time, heavy metal band Sleep Token will be turning up the volume at Co-Op Live Arena.
Known for performing in masks to keep their identities hidden, Sleep Token will headline next year’s Download Festival with Green Day and Korn.
Back to the football, and another big crowd is expected on Thursday when Manchester United take on defending Norwegian champions FK Bodø/Glimt in the Europa League.
Sporting their club’s bright yellow colours, Bodø/Glimt supporters are due to walk to Old Trafford from the city centre before the match, which kicks off at 20:00.
