Manchester City will be without Phil Foden for this evening's FA Cup fourth-round tie against Arsenal at the Etihad Stadium.
Pep Guardiola stated in his pre-match press conference that the 22-year-old was "getting better" after picking up a foot injury, but the Citizens will have to cope without the attacker this evening, as he has not been named in the matchday squad.
Only two changes have been made by Guardiola to his starting lineup following Sunday's 3-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League, with goalkeeper Stefan Ortega and defender Nathan Ake coming into the side at the expense of Ederson and Aymeric Laporte respectively.
Ake will be joined in the back four by John Stones, Manuel Akanji and Rico Lewis, although the latter is expected to operate at times in central midfield alongside lynchpin Rodri.
Kevin De Bruyne and Ilkay Gundogan will also occupy midfield roles, while Riyad Mahrez, Jack Grealish and Erling Braut Haaland – the latter of whom netted at hat-trick at the weekend – all retain their places in attack.
As for Arsenel, Mikel Arteta has made six changes to his starting lineup following their 3-2 Premier League win over Manchester United, with Matt Turner, Takehiro Tomiyasu, Kieran Tierney, Rob Holding, Fabio Vieira and January signing Leandro Trossard all brought into the side.
Former Man City man Oleksandr Zinchenko is named among the Gunners substitutes' bench, while Gabriel Jesus remains sidelined with a knee injury.
Manchester City starting lineup: Ortega; Lewis, Stones, Akanji, Ake; De Bruyne, Rodri, Gundogan; Mahrez, Haaland, Grealish
Subs: Ederson, Walker, Cancelo, Dias, Laporte, Phillips, Alvarez, Palmer, Bernardo
Arsenal starting lineup: Turner; Tomiyasu, Holding, Gabriel, Tierney; Xhaka, Partey; Saka, Vieira, Trossard; Nketiah
