Manchester City defender Martín Demichelis believes that their Champions League fixture against Bayern Munich on Wednesday is the best way to see what level that they are at presently.
The German giants are the favourites, not only for the match but also frontrunners for the tournament, and the 33-year-old believes the match will be important to prove where the Citizens stand at this point in time.
He however is confident about the game being played evenly, with both teams having similar qualities on display and both being good in possession.
"Playing Bayern now is the best way of being able to see the level that we're at", the Argentine was quoted as saying by UEFA's official site.
