Bournemouth
Bournemouth will be without last weekend's match-winner Tavernier due to a hamstring injury, and the attacker will join Lewis Cook (knee), David Brooks (thigh), Lloyd Kelly (calf) and Illia Zabarnyi (ankle) in the treatment room, while Jordan Zemura (knock) and Junior Stanislas (muscle) are minor doubts and will be assessed ahead of kickoff.
The absence of Tavernier is set to see Jaidon Anthony deputise on the left flank, while Solanke is expected to continue as the central striker ahead of Kieffer Moore and Antoine Semenyo.
O'Neil is unlikely to make too many other changes to his starting lineup, with Jack Stephens hoping to start his third successive game at centre-back ahead of Chris Mepham.
Bournemouth possible starting lineup:
Neto; Smith, Stephens, Senesi, Zemura; Billing, Lerma; Ouattara, Traore, Anthony; Solanke
Manchester City
As for Man City, John Stones (hamstring) and Aymeric Laporte (illness) are both expected to miss out, but Guardiola has confirmed that Kevin De Bruyne could recover from his own battle with illness to feature on Saturday.
It remains to be seen whether Guardiola will stick with a similar four-man defence to the one that he used against Leipzig or revert to starting only three natural defenders, with Bernardo Silva filling in as a makeshift left-back when out of possession.
Jack Grealish, who has recorded all seven of his Premier League goal contributions away from home so far this season (three goals and four assists), is expected to continue on the left flank, while Phil Foden will push Mahrez for a start on the right side of attack, as Erling Braut Haaland continues to lead the line.
Manchester City possible starting lineup:
Ederson; Walker, Dias, Ake; Rodri, Bernardo; Foden, De Bruyne, Gundogan, Grealish; Haaland
Prediction: Bournemouth 1-3 Manchester City
