Manchester City will endeavour to return to winning ways when they travel to the Vitality Stadium to face Bournemouth in the Premier League on Saturday evening.
While the Citizens have drawn back-to-back games by a 1-1 scoreline away against Nottingham Forest and RB Leipzig, the Cherries secured a 1-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers in their last match.
Team News
Early team news from Pep Guardiola suggested that Kevin De Bruyne could be fit enough to return but the fixture comes too soon for Aymeric Laporte and John Stones.
With that in mind, here is how the Media and some fans think City should line-up to face the Cherries this weekend.
Manchester City possible starting lineup:
Evening Standard XI: Ederson; Walker, Akanji, Dias, Ake; De Bruyne, Rodri, Silva; Mahrez, Haaland, Grealish.
