Manchester City
Man City will have to cope without Jack Grealish (knock) and Jeremy Doku (muscle), who are the latest names to join the club's growing injury list that also includes Rodri (ACL), Oscar Bobb (leg fracture), Kevin De Bruyne (groin) and Kyle Walker (knee).
Guardiola is unable to make wholesale changes to his team for Saturday's contest now that his squad is down to its bare bones, but he is expected to recall a few first-team stars, including Ederson, Josko Gvardiol and Mateo Kovacic.
After scoring one goal and provided two assists in midweek, Matheus Nunes could be rewarded with another start in a makeshift role on the left flank, with Savinho on the right and both Phil Foden and Bernardo Silva operating in advanced midfield positions in behind central striker Haaland.
Manchester City possible starting lineup:
Ederson; Stones, Dias, Gvardiol; Lewis, Kovacic; Savinho, Bernardo, Foden, Nunes; Haaland
Southampton
As for Southampton, Ryan Fraser (suspended), Gavin Bazunu (Achilles), Ross Stewart (muscle) and William Smallbone (hamstring) are all unavailable for selection, while Yukinari Sugawara (unspecified) is doubtful after coming off early against Leicester.
However, the Saints are able to welcome back Jack Stephens, who has served a three-match and a further two-match ban, and is in contention to join Jan Bednarek and former Man City defender Taylor Harwood-Bellis in central defence.
Joe Aribo could once again link arms with Flynn Downes and Mateus Fernandes in midfield, while rising star Tyler Dibling is likely to start in attack with striker Cameron Archer, who has scored two Premier League goals in his last two games.
Southampton possible starting lineup:
Ramsdale; Stephens, Bednarek, Harwood-Bellis; Walker-Peters, Aribo, Downes, Fernandes, Manning; Dibling, Archer
Prediction: Manchester City 4-1 Southampton
