Fourth Midfielder: Leroy Sane
It should also be noted here that Kevin De Bruyne would have had a starting spot in the top three along with Fernandinho and Silva, but will miss this match due to a calf injury. Sane steps in here after a solid performance over the weekend vs Southampton. He is still coming into his form, but would offer great attacking width and link up play with the two strikers selected in this lineup.
