Manchester City will start today's Champions League match as the table toppers and the favorites, something we all know. What most of the fans are curious about is what will the likes of Haaland, Kevin de Bruyne show on the field as the whole City team continues their red-hot form in the Premier League as well as the Champions League. Probably Pep would go with his 4-3-3 formation and if he does so he would go with this line-up:-
Kevin de Bryune :
There is a big question mark as to whether he will start today's match as Pep Guardiola might seek the option to bench him after consecutive hectic Premier League and Champions League fixtures.
Haaland :
He might start or might not start. If he starts you will surely get to see another sight of his bolstering form and maybe another hattrick. But Pep may feel to rest him a little and give Alvarez/ Foden a chance as the forward, as Haaland has already played too many games for Man City as well as Norway.
Right Winger?
On the right wing, he might go with Foden over Mahrez today to give him more game time. Foden is good on the right wing as well as on the CAM position but given today's formation, Foden may play on the right wind. Moreover, Foden has been scoring so Pep may Choose to start him.
Jack Grealish :
I am certain he will start on the left wing. In the last match against he missed an easy chance in front of the goal and has scored only one goal so far. He would be giving everything tonight to bag goals in his tally.
Midfield :
In the midfield Silva, Gundogan & Nathan Ake as the defensive Midfielder or Cole Palmer in the central midfield may start the game.
Defense:
Gomez on the left, Cancelo on the right as full-backs, Laporte and Ruben Dias would be the probable center-back pairing.
City would obviously be playing their possession game, with quick attacking down the flanks as well as would be creating chances from the half-spaces in the opposition's half.
EXPECTED STARTING XI :
