City analysis

So Kevin De Bruyne is on the City bench today, with Kyle Walker captaining the side.

Nathan Ake isn't in the squad, and with Josko Gvardiol only joining yesterday it looks as if Akanji will play on the left of defence.

Mateo Kovacic starts alongside Alvarez in midfield, with Phil Foden having to settle for a place on the bench.
