Pep Guardiola says Aston Villa midfielder Douglas Luiz has the quality to play for Manchester City

Aston Villa will be faced with their toughest test of the Premier League campaign thus far when they visit the Etihad Stadium to clash with Manchester City tomorrow. Having won back-to-back league games of recent, scoring seven goals and conceding twice, Dean Smith’s side will fancy their chances against Pep Guardiola’s men. Despite being back-to-back league winners, City haven’t exactly been invisible this term, losing twice already. Villa have everything it takes to cause an upset, and the fact that Norwich City – who they demolished 5-1 – and Wolverhampton Wanderers did it will give them so hope.
