Man City
- Sean Longstaff is available following suspension and could come into the side at the expense of either Jonjo Shelvey or Isaac Hayden.
- Jamaal Lascelles and Matt Ritchie sit out the welcome of Manchester City through injury, while Florian Lejeune is still working his way back to full fitness following a long spell on the sidelines.
- Fabian Schar may come into the XI that started the 2-0 loss at Aston Villa.
- Sergio Aguero joins Aymeric Laporte, Leroy Sane and Oleksandr Zinchenko on the sidelines, which should pave the way for Gabriel Jesus to lead the line.
- Bernardo Silva is available following a one-match ban and could start at the expense of Riyad Mahrez on the right.
- Joao Cancelo has been featuring prominently from right-back at Kyle Walker's expense of late and may continue despite playing the full 90 minutes against Shakhtar Donetsk on Tuesday night.
Finally City can fully concentrate on Champions League.
I'm so sad. It's no fun trolling a club with no fans.
Fraudiola!
1 win in the last 5 games. City is slipping
Thanks you agent shelvey
Go ahead and build that Klopp stature
Why subbing-off Mahrez?
Literally De Bruyne vs other 26 players that was...
It reminds me the time we had Van Gaal, a lot of possession and shots but no win because of defensive errors and inconsistent forwards.
@Byakuya Manchester City are way way better than manchester united under van gaal..u can not even begin to compare the two..van gaal manchester united never had as much possession as pep's city and nor they did ever score even near the amounts of goals that city have for the last 3 seasons.
@Byakuya Hardly surprising. These are the unthinking disciples of Cruyff. Little do they realise that modern football has long moved on from the possession fetishism of Cruyff. Just look at how France won the World Cup or how Liverpool won the Champions League. There was none of the tiki taka nonsense.
@SeuneMilmas im sorry but this style of play won city multiple titles in England including 2 EPL titles in a row. It has not "long moved on".
@BarcaPlsLetMeDown lol, EPL title is trash compared to CL title
rip city's hopes
Shit
Man City to win and over 2.5 Goals.
Sterling to score twice
@alxdru ok XD
New castle 1-2 Man city
1-3
@nexus747 I'll be shocked if Newcastle didn't draw 2-2
Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has confirmed striker Sergio Aguero will be out "for a few weeks" with the thigh injury he sustained in Saturday's win against Chelsea.
