Sporting CP
Amorim should only be missing two stricken troops in the shape of 22-year-old defender Eduardo Quaresma (muscle) and long-term absentee Nuno Santos, who is expected to miss the rest of the year with a knee injury.
Responsible for a fabulous four of his side's five goals in the embarrassment of Estrela, Swedish sensation Viktor Gyokeres has allegedly been identified by the Man City hierarchy as an ideal acquisition should Erling Haaland ever seek pastures new.
The 26-year-old has already banked an outrageous 20 goals in 17 games this season, and he has found the back of the net in all four of his home starts for Sporting in European competition.
Sporting Lisbon possible starting lineup:
Israel; Inacio, Diomande, Debast; Quenda, Braganca, Hjulmand, Araujo; Trincao, Gyokeres, Goncalves
Manchester City
Guardiola's fear that he may only have 13 players available for Bournemouth did not quite come true, as all of Savinho, Jeremy Doku, Kyle Walker and Kevin De Bruyne were part of the matchday squad after exiting the infirmary.
However, the City boss has confirmed that defensive duo Ruben Dias and John Stones are out for a "little bit of a long time" with unspecified concerns, joining Rodri (ACL), Oscar Bobb (leg) and Jack Grealish (unknown) in the visitors' medical bay.
Neither De Bruyne nor Savinho - who was stretchered off with an ankle injury in the loss to Tottenham - made it off the bench at the Vitality, though, and Walker is surely a candidate to drop out for Rico Lewis after being run ragged at the weekend.
Manchester City possible starting lineup:
Ederson; Lewis, Akanji, Ake, Gvardiol; Silva, Kovacic, Gundogan; Doku, Haaland, Nunes
Prediction: Sporting Lisbon 2-2 Manchester City
