Man City
David Silva is a doubt but could feature, Phil Foden might get a place on the bench as one of Guardiola's seven (7) substitutes allowed and a decision must be made as to whether John Stones or Aymeric Laporte should partner Nicolas Otamendi in defence.
Leroy Sane misses out because of that pesky ankle injury and Riyad Mahrez doesn't play for Man City so won't be available for selection. Fabian Delph, Gabriel Jesus and Benjamin Mendy are all still injured.
Leicester
Wes Morgan is injured but you're not interested about that. Will Riyad Mahrez play? Will he even be there?! The Algerian went on strike after Leicester wouldn't sell him for a price that made sense to Man City but has returned to training and both Mahrez and Guardiola are keen that he plays.

Pep Guardiola stated pleasure at the display in last Saturday’s draw at Burnley yet a born-winner will want Manchester City to return to victorious ways especially as the Champions League resumes next week. How things have changed for Leicester City and Riyad Mahrez since the latter tore City apart in the same fixture two years ago during the Foxes’ title-winning season. The Algerian is available again but unlikely to start after only returning to training on Friday due to his disgruntlement over a failed move to the league leaders. Jamie Jackson
