Manchester City
Man City playmaker Kevin De Bruyne has missed the last two games with an unspecified injury and remains a doubt for Saturday, but otherwise, Guardiola has a fully-fit squad at his disposal.
Ake recovered from a hamstring injury to start and score against West Ham and he could continue on the left side of defence, while goalkeeper Stefan Ortega – who was surprisingly handed his Premier League debut at the expense of Ederson in midweek – will be hoping to retain his spot between the sticks.
Guardiola may consider swapping out either Riyad Mahrez or Jack Grealish for Foden, who was last handed a start in the middle of March, while Julian Alvarez is expected to continue in attack with Haaland – who scored twice against Leeds in a 3-1 win at Elland Road earlier this season – if De Bruyne is not fit to feature.
Manchester City possible starting lineup:
Ederson; Walker, Stones, Dias, Ake; Rodri, Gundogan; Foden, Alvarez, Grealish; Haaland
Leeds
As for Leeds, Luis Sinisterra (ankle), Tyler Adams (hamstring), Stuart Dallas (leg) and Liam Cooper (muscle) all remain sidelined with injuries, while Allardyce has confirmed that a few unspecified players have "niggles" that will be assessed ahead of kickoff.
Goalkeeper Illan Meslier has come under fire in recent weeks, but the 23-year-old could continue between the sticks ahead of Joel Robles, while Allardyce is sure to ponder defensive changes as he attempts to shore up his backline against a rampant City side. Maximilian Wober, Pascal Struijk and Junior Firpo all began on the substitutes' bench last time out and will be pushing for a recall.
Allardyce was full of praise for Wilfried Gnonto before taking the Leeds job and he will likely hand the Italian teenager a start on the left flank, while top scorer Rodrigo is expected to return to the first XI, either replacing or supporting Patrick Bamford in attack.
Leeds United possible starting lineup:
Meslier; Ayling, Koch, Wober, Firpo; Roca, McKennie, Forshaw; Summerville, Rodrigo, Gnonto
Prediction: Manchester City 3-0 Leeds United
