Manchester City Team News
Ederson starts in goal with a back line of Nathan Ake, Vitor Reis, Rico Lewis, and Nico O’Reilly. Tijjani Reijnders makes his debut in midfield alongside Jeremy Doku, Savinho, Phil Foden, and new signing Rayan Cherki. Omar Marmoush leads the line.
Notable Changes
There’s quite a new look in sky blue after a regular season full of ups and downs. Reis gets a rare chance to start in defence with Lewis also getting his chance to impress. More importantly new signings Reignders and Cherki get an immediate chance to show their worth in what could be a 4-1-4-1 with Foden and the former Lyon man central.
