There was a huge blow just before kick off for City with Rodri having been declared not fit enough to play meaning that Bernardo Silva moved into midfield alongside Kevin De Bruyne and Ilkay Gundogan.

Jack Grealish started in attack with Phil Foden and Erling Haaland with Nathan Ake at centre-back with Manuel Akanji.
