Manchester City are still on track to potentially obtain an unthinkable Quadruple this season. However, the Premier League leaders are looking to take this a step further and make it a Quintuple...by competing in a series of challenges against current European Rugby champions, Saracens.
In the third episode, 'The Hurricane, Manchester City players have to see if they're able to hit a target in the top corner, despite having a wind machine blasting in their face at its maximum strength.
Sergio Aguero, Fernandinho, Nicolas Otamendi and Danilo lead the line for City, whilst Jamie George, Schalk Burger, Ben Spencer and Richard Barrington represent the Sarries. Ex-Manchester City goalkeeper Shay Given and former Saracens player Jim Hamilton act as captains for their respective teams.
Nicola Fitton, Managing Director for Betsafe UK, Ireland and ROW, also added: "Football vs Rugby is a debate that is had throughout the UK.
As Manchester City and Saracens are both at the top of their respective sports, we wanted to push them both as far as we could to find out if they have what it takes to Overcome The Odds in a series of fun and engaging situations, which will be unveiled across the next few weeks. Betsafe are immensely proud of our association with both clubs."
