Pep Guardiola will hopefully make only two or three changes to the team that picked up the 3-0 victory against Arsenal on Thursday night.<\/p>\n
The first big chance will surely be the inclusion of John Stones in central defence in place of Vincent Kompany. Kompany had a wonderful outing against the Gunners on Thursday but considering his age he certainly cannot play three games in a span of 8 days.<\/p>\n
Fernandinho is still out injured meaning IIkay Gundogan will once again start in central midfield.<\/p>\n
[yop_poll id=”7″]<\/p>\n
Guardiola will not shuffle around with his other midfielders meaning that David Silva and Kevin De Bruyne will start alongside Gundogan.<\/p>\n
Bernardo Silva started the match against Arsenal but with Raheem Sterling seemingly fit the Englishman is sure to make his way into the first XI.<\/p>\n
Leroy Sane had a wonderful game on Thursday and is a guaranteed starter on the left flank with Sergio Aguero playing as the only frontman.<\/p>\n
