Manchester City would like to build on the FA Cup triumph of the weekend if they fight in the Premier League.
The cityzens secured their place in the semi -finals of the FA Cup on Sunday afternoon when they came from behind to beat Andoni Iraola’s brave bournemouth. You will want to get the trust of your victory on the south coast on the excursion on Wednesday, with three points against the foxes enough to bring them into the top 4 for the time being.
The victory on Sunday was not just a smile. Erling Haaland, who scored 30 goals in all competitions this season, suffered a devastating ankle injury, in which he will only return the final games of the campaign. Pep Guardiola has to adapt without his Scandi Sharpshooter.
Here is how City could set up in the middle of the week.
GK: Ederson – Everson returned from an injury to Bournemouth after having missed the international break with abdominal pain. It is unlikely that he is too busy against Leicester, who has not scored in the last five games.
RB: Rico Lewis – Matheus Nunes was a surprise selection at Right-Back this season and the Orthodox midfielder limited Lewis’s minutes. However, the young Englishman could return to Leicester after the two weekend display from Nunes.
CB: Ruben slides – In the past few weeks, slides have struggled in addition to the inexperienced and error -prone abdukodir Khusanov and lacks the comfort of the preferred central defenders Manuel Akanji, Nathan Ake and John Stones.
CB: Josko Gvardiol – Gvardiol was relocated to Bournemouth at half -time and impressed in the role that he used to occupy regularly. It should be shown in the middle from the start on Wednesday.
LB: Nico O’reilly – The star of the Young Academy was the differentiator from the bank at the weekend and helped twice when City scraped off the last four. O’Reilly would not have been very comfortable in the full-back and should have done enough to acquire a Premier League start against Leicester.
DM: Mateo Kovacic – Kovacic is always a steady performer in midfield, even if he does not provide the attacking spark by Kevin de Bruyne or the defensive nous of Rodri.
DM: Nico Gonzalez – The 34-year-old Ilkay Gundogan could be rested after over 80 minutes on Sunday. Winter signed Gonzalez is the natural replacement of the German in the engine room.
RW: Savinho – The Brazilian was the difference between the pages in December in December and in the King Power Stadium in a 2-0 victory for City in the King Power Stadium. His speed will lead to Victor Kristiansen to problems.
Am: Kevin de Bruyne – A lot of uncertainty surrounds his future in Etihad, but he earned an increasingly rare start at the weekend and was able to get back into the start -xi.
LW: Jeremy Doku – James Justin will not look forward to a fight with the tricky and relentless documentary. The Belgian should burn the Leicester foreign defender with his dynamics.
St: Omar Marmoush – Haaland’s absence leaves a huge emptiness, but Marmoush, who achieved the winner at the weekend, is a capable MP. All of his Premier League goals have come to Etihad since his winter change.
