Mahrez
A return to the starting line-up after an improved performance vs. Sevilla and being left out at the weekend, we are likely to see him in the Carabao Cup line-up.
Foden
For many blues, Foden is the first name on their own team sheet. However, this season has seen him left out of the starting line-up numerous times. However, whether he starts, or comes off the bench, he has something to contribute.
Alvarez
Pep has said that Haaland continues to have a slight issue in his foot despite making an appearance as a substitute for Alvarez vs. Fulham at the weekend. Alvarez opened the scoring on Saturday with a great run and Sergio-like finish.
Tell me your predicted line-up, blues.
