Kit Highlights

The week’s fixtures started with a Kit Mash up on show, Girona using their 3rd Kit with Away socks for an interesting look at PSV! This was the first time they had used a change kit in this season’s competition.

AC Milan, Bayer Leverkusen and Manchester City, are teams that have worn four different kit looks in their opening four games….

Levekusen in Away kit at Liverpool (a kit worn by their goalkeeper in the last round of fixtures).

Man City in Home / white socks at Sporting CP!

AC Milan in an alternative look for their Home Kit this season, but remains a classic AC Milan look with black shorts / socks, this also opens up more alternative possibiltes for future fixtures with their default white shorts / socks.

Bayern Munich used their 3rd Kit at Home for a second in this competition, this means they are yet to to wear their Home Kit in their opening 4 games!

12 Team in total have worn three different kit looks in their opening four games.

My favourite Kit Match of the week was the game between Sparta Prague and Brest, Brest another team in an interesting kit mash up, using 3rd shorts with their away kit for a look very much like a “Team USA” kit and paired with the lovely tri-colour kit of Sparta Prague made a good visual match up.
