Manchester City can take a big step towards qualification for the Champions League knockout stage with a win over Young Boys on Wednesday.
Manchester City have a strong squad to choose from when they take on Young Boys in the Champions League on Wednesday.
Before that, they must win in Bern, and Guardiola may change things up from the win against Brighton with the derby at United in mind at the weekend. Ederson, Ruben Dias, Jack Grealish and Mateo Kovacic could all be recalled after being benched at the weekend, while Manuel Akanji will be available after being sent off last week, serving his one-game ban this weekend.
Dias can come back in after being rested on Saturday and Nathan Ake can come in given Akanji will be suspended for the next match. John Stones will probably come in for the derby but City will be keen not to overload him given he has missed so much of the season through injury. It's been established that Rodri is undroppable, and City need to win this game, so he continues. As good as Phil Foden was at the weekend, he is another who can be rested for United. Guardiola said Matheus Nunes could have started against Brighton, so he can come in to try and link the attack.
