Manchester City look to make it back-to-back league wins on Sunday as they welcome Swansea City to the Etihad Stadium. 

The Citizens are coming off a 4-0 drubbing of West Ham United on Wednesday, and look in fine form for Sunday’s meeting with the Swans. Pep Guardiola‘s team have beaten Swansea twice already this season, with wins so far in the Barclays Premier League and the EFL Cup.

Swansea, under new boss Paul Clement, is trying to climb up the table and get further away from the relegation zone. Swansea also looks to earn their first away win at Manchester City since 1951.

With Sunday’s league fixture quickly approaching, I decided to create a best starting XI with members of both teams.

Goalkeeper – Willy Caballero

Out of the available keepers for both sides, I feel Willy is the best for this spot. He has made 12 appearances in all competitions this season, and has been able to make some key saves for the club. He isn’t prone to many mistakes like Claudio Bravo has this season, while Swansea’s Lukasz Fabianski is a capable keeper as well. Overall, Willy makes it look easy in net, and should keep his spot between the posts for Manchester City.
