Guardiola made several changes to his side ahead of their draw with Celtic in the Champions League on Tuesday, with the likes of John Stones, Kevin De Bruyne, and David Silva all not involved.

Suspensions to Fernandinho and Sergio Aguero means that the likes of Fernando and Kelechi Iheanacho, both of whom started on Tuesday, may come into the side on Saturday but, for the most part, the players who’ll start at the weekend will have had a week’s rest.

The Chelsea defeat would have taken a lot out of the City side, especially with how well they played in the first half, but many will be fresh ahead of their visit to the King Power Stadium on Saturday.
