Manchester City have announced their side and substitutes to play host to Mauricio Pochettino's Tottenham Hotspur side in a crunch Premier League encounter this afternoon.

The Citizens were dumped out of the Champions League by Tottenham in midweek and will want to quickly bounce back and retake pole position in the Premier League title race.




However, Tottenham continue to fight for a top four spot in the Premier League and only boast a point advantage over Arsenal and Chelsea, respectively, while they are three points clear of Manchester United.

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has Ederson in goal, while in defence he picks a back two of John Stones and Aymeric Laporte. Ilkay Gundogan slots into midfield, while Phil Foden, Kevin De Bruyne and Bernardo Silva play. Raheem Sterling will bid to support Sergio Aguero.

Guardiola has options on the bench to change things, including Fernandinho and Gabriel Jesus.
