City have an almost fully-fit squad to pick from once again with Kevin De Bruyne the only confirmed injury absentee.

Manuel Akanji is eligible to play and starts despite being sent off against Brighton, as his one-game ban applies only to the Premier League and the upcoming Manchester derby.

Mateo Kovacic and Rico Lewis both come into the side while Ederson returns in goal having been benched last time out due to tiredness after the international break.
