Coming into the game, both sides had their share of injury concerns, and Guardiola has had to make do without captain Kyle Walker in his defence, although John Stones is on bench after limping out of England’s friendly with Belgium in mid-week.

Meanwhile, all of Gabriel, Gabriel Martinelli and Bukayo Saka were subject to late fitness tests ahead of the trip to Manchester, but while Gabriel and Saka start, Martinelli is only fit enough for the bench.
