With Rodri and Jack Grealish set to return from suspension, a more full-strength Manchester City side is expected to feature against Luton Town, as per our predicted lineup for Sunday’s clash.
After losing 1-0 to Aston Villa on Wednesday night, Pep Guardiola could make four changes to his XI to ensure they return to winning ways.
Manchester City predicted lineup vs Luton Town
Emerging as one of the few bright sparks for Manchester City against Aston Villa, Ederson Moraes has further boosted his chances of being in goal against Luton Town, according to our predicted lineup.
Kyle Walker has regained his starting spot in the side after having been in and out of the team last season, making it highly likely that he will retain his spot at right-back at Kenilworth Road.
While John Stones operated as an actual defensive midfielder against Aston Villa, he could return to the centre of defence against the Hatters.
Ruben Dias, much like Ederson was in terrific touch against Aston Villa and keeps his place in our Manchester City predicted lineup against Luton Town.
With Josko Gvardiol being culpable at the back in recent games against Chelsea and Villa, Pep Guardiola could perhaps bring Nathan Ake back into the fold on Sunday.
Rodri looks set to start against Luton Town, as per our Manchester City predicted lineup, with Manuel Akanji being potentially benched for the clash.
The £63 million (Indepedent) man’s presence was especially missed against Villa, with his side being completely dominated in the middle of the park.
Phil Foden, who started on the left flank against the Villains could be shifted to the right due to Jack Grealish looking like he too could start proceedings off the back of serving a one-match suspension.
Rico Lewis, who was one of the advanced midfielders against Aston Villa could be dropped in place of the more experienced Mateo Kovacic, who came on as a late substitute during the previous encounter.
Bernardo Silva, who Eduardo Camavinga recently singled out as the toughest opponent he has ever faced seems likely to start as one of the two midfielders sitting behind the striker as well.
Julian Alvarez could get the nod to lead the line ahead of Erling Haaland, who is reported to have been ruled out of the clash.
If the Norwegian does miss the game, Jack Grealish could fill in for his vacancy but on the left flank.
Manchester City predicted lineup vs Luton Town: Ederson, Walker, Stones, Dias, Ake, Rodri, Foden, Bernardo Silva, Kovacic, Grealish, Alvarez
