It’s a case of ‘London Calling’ once more as Manchester City face, yet another, side from the Nations Capitol. This time, however, it will be on Mancunian soil with the blues having a number of players back from injury.

Gabriel Jesus got a few minutes over the previous two games, both against Arsenal, and may be ready for a start. After Liverpool winning yesterday, and United not playing until Monday, City could be eighteen points clear come the final whistle.

So, with that in mind, how might Pep set his side up for today’s game. Usually I would expect a rotated side, baring in mind we have a Champions League tie midweek. But even that game isn’t such a massive one, having already pretty much taken care of Basel in Switzerland. For that reason I think Pep will go for a very strong lineup.
