The Serbs managed to cause the defending champions an issue in the reverse fixture at the Etihad Stadium, taking the lead before Julian Alvarez inspired a 3-1 win for Pep Guardiola's side.
Whatever the result here, City will top Group G to earn a seeding in the last-16 while Zvezda are doomed to finish bottom and depart European competition at this stage.
