Attackers:

Get ready for the tabloids to talk about a rift between Pep Guardiola and Raheem Sterling if the English winger is benched. That would be to do his potential replacement, Bernardo Silva, an injustice. The Portuguese International has been fantastic in recent months, and would certainly deserve his chance if he does start.

Again, on the left, it should be young player of the year Leroy Sane. Brahim Diaz, like Foden, is still waiting for his medal and needs a single game to qualify. It might be a stretch for Pep to start him, but could certainly get on in the second half if the Blues are doing well.

Brazilian striker, Gabriel Jesus will most likely get the start again. As I have said in previous preview pieces, I’d like to see a false nine situation happening.
