As Manchester City prepare to face Sevilla on Wednesday in the UEFA Super Cup, we have tried to call their predicted lineup.
After their assertive 3-0 victory against Burnley on Friday, we expect Pep Guardiola to make as many as three changes for the clash.
Manchester City predicted lineup vs Sevilla
In net, Ederson is expected to keep his place in our Manchester City predicted lineup against Sevilla, after Jamie Carragher recently told Sky Sports that he is convinced that he could operate as an outfield player.
Rico Lewis keep his place but in place of Kyle Walker at right-back, who could be given a breather ahead of City’s tricky fixture against Newcastle United this Sunday.
With Pep Guardiola recently confirming that the injured John Stones will only return to face Eddie Howe’s side and concussion protocols mean the same could be the case with Ruben Dias (via Manchester Evening News), Manuel Akanji and Nathan Ake could retain their places in the centre of the defence.
At left-back, Josko Gvardiol, branded as ‘phenomenal’ by Mateo Kovacic could make his first start against Sevilla.
In defensive midfield, Rodri might as well be one of, if not the first name on the team sheet.
Mateo Kovacic, who impressed after replacing the injured Kevin De Bruyne seems likely to start in our Manchester City predicted lineup.
While rumours surrounding Bernardo Silva being potentially injured, Julian Alvarez could operate as an attacking midfielder once again.
At right-wing, Phil Foden looks set to start once again after a bright display against the Clarets.
Up front, Erling Haaland seems set to start proceedings as well after his masterclass against Burnley on Friday night.
Jack Grealish, who was benched after his quiet outing in the Community Shield could return to fold on the left flank.
Manchester City predicted lineup vs Sevilla: Ederson, Lewis, Akanji, Ake, Gvardiol, Rodri, Kovacic, Foden, Alvarez Haaland, Grealish
