Mahrez: Mahrez has seen limited game time so far this season, and his performances have been underwhelming, though it is hard coming off the bench.

He performs better when there is space to toy with defenders, and the Champions League fixture might be “his” game to shine in. We know he loves a CL night.

Grealish: needs the game time after returning from injury, and Foden has started every game. Perhaps we will see him rested and Grealish back in. Though our star boy does also bring a special show under the CL lights, and he loves a clash against Dortmund.

Haaland, Haaland. He’s not going to be left on the bench against his ex, surely?

What are your thoughts on this predicted line-up blues? And what are your score predictions for our face-off with Dortmund?
