DFC: RUBEN DIAS – The Portuguese center back will once again lead the Mancunian defense with the firmness with which we are accustomed. Authority, leadership and a lot of quality, accompanied by an enviable physique for playing football, make Rubén one of the best center backs in the world.
LI: AKANJI – The central defender, now able to play from the side also thanks to the training of Pep, who came from Borussia, is being one of the best signings of the club since last year in relation to quality/price. He was a player that no one expected to come to the club, but he always performs as he should and that will ensure him a starting position in the defense. Ake will rest.
MC: KEVIN DE BRUYNE – In the midfield, the presence of the Belgian adds creativity and vision of the game to Manchester City. De Bruyne, a master of the pass and capable of unbalancing at any moment, will be in charge of directing the game in the center of the field.
MC: RODRI – Rodri will act as the anchor in the midfield, providing defensive stability and assisting in ball distribution.

MCO: JULIÁN ÁLVAREZ – The Argentine has played practically everything this season, and it doesn't seem like he's going to miss this game. Guardiola has managed to fit Julián with Haaland in the same starting eleven, and the Argentine is in one of the best moments of his career.
EI: DOKU – Possibly Pep, giving the opportunity to a Doku who is having a great season and gives the dribble that Mahrez or Grealish could offer in their position in other years.
OF THE: HAALAND – The Norwegian has returned, he already enjoyed a few minutes in the last game, and his 18 goals in the Premier show that the league teams are going to have to take great care of their rearguard again so that this player does not make them beat again all the records there have been and will be in the competition.
ED: BERNARDO SILVA – Completing the offensive trident is the Portuguese Bernardo Silva, known for his agility, vision of the game and ability to score goals. Silva will bring versatility and imbalance to City's attack. The Portuguese is one of the best in the world and he shows it every time he takes the field.
