Goal Scorer:
Manchester City
Manchester City will be without Mateo Kovacic and Kevin De Bruyne. Both players are likely to return to action next month. The home side will shape up in a 3-4-2-1 formation, with Ederson Moraes in goal. Kyle Walker will start alongside Ruben Dias and Josko Gvardiol in a back three.
Phil Foden and Jack Grealish are likely to be deployed as the wingers, and they will look to double down as the wing-backs as well and help out the defenders. Rodri will start as the defensive midfielder with John Stones alongside him.
Both players will look to break up the opposition attack and shield the back three. Bernardo Silva and Julian Alvarez will be deployed as the central attacking midfielders here, and the two players will look to create goalscoring opportunities for star striker Erling Haaland.
Probable Lineup (3-4-2-1): Ederson; Walker, Dias, Gvardiol; Foden, Stones, Rodri, Grealish; Silva, Alvarez; Haaland
RB Leipzig
The visitors have a number of injury problems heading into this contest, and they will be without key players like Dani Olmo, Timo Werner and Benjamin Sesko. Willi Orban and El Chadaille Bitshiabu are ruled out with injuries as well.
They are likely to shape up in the 4-4-2 formation, with Janis Blaswich in goal. Benjamin Henrichs and David Raum will be deployed as the full-backs, and they will look to protect the central defence and help out during transitions. Mohamed Simakan will start alongside Castello Lukeba in central defence.
Emil Forsberg and Xavi Simons will be deployed in the wide areas, and they will look to add creativity and width to the side. They are likely to drift infield to outnumber the Manchester City midfield.
Kevin Kampl will start alongside Xaver Schlager in the middle of the park; the two players will look to protect the defensive unit. Finally, Lois Openda will lead the line for RB Leipzig here, with Yussuf Poulsen alongside him.
Probable Lineup (4-4-2): Blaswich; Henrichs, Simakan, Lukeba, Raum; Simons, Schlager, Kampl, Forsberg; Openda, Poulsen
Prediction: Manchester City 3-0 RB Leipzig
