How Manchester City could line up against Tottenham Hotspur

How Manchester City could line up against Tottenham

Manchester City will have Kyle Walker available for Saturday's Premier League clash with Tottenham Hotspur at the Etihad Stadium.

The England international missed out against Sporting Lisbon in the Champions League on Tuesday night through suspension, but he will be back in the side against his former club this weekend.

Walker for John Stones could be the only change from the side that started the 5-0 win over Sporting, with head coach Pep Guardiola likely to resist the temptation to shuffle his pack.

Phil Foden, Riyad Mahrez and Raheem Sterling all scored during the week and should continue as the front three, with Foden operating in the middle of the attack.

Jack Grealish and Gabriel Jesus have both recently been unavailable for selection through injury, but the pair could be back in the squad against Antonio Conte's side.

Cole Palmer is still out with an ankle injury, though, and Benjamin Mendy is unavailable for the foreseeable future due to a club suspension.

Ilkay Gundogan is the player pushing the hardest to be introduced into the starting side following the clash with Sporting, but it seems unlikely that either Rodri or Kevin De Bruyne will drop out.

Meanwhile, Bernardo Silva scored twice in an excellent display in the Champions League, and the Portugal international has seven Premier League goals to his name this term.

Manchester City possible starting lineup: Ederson; Walker, Dias, Laporte, Cancelo; De Bruyne, Rodri, Bernardo; Mahrez, Foden, Sterling
