Sports Mole looks at how Manchester City could line up in Tuesday's FA Cup clash with Peterborough United.

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola is expected to have close to a fully-fit squad available for Tuesday's FA Cup fifth-round contest with Championship side Peterborough United.

Gabriel Jesus and Jack Grealish both returned to the bench against Everton in the Premier League on Saturday after spells on the sidelines, with the former featuring as a late substitute at Goodison Park.

Jesus could now come in for a starting role, while there is also expected to be a spot in the side for Grealish.

Guardiola selected a strong XI in the previous round against Fulham and that is again likely to be the case in this match, with the Spaniard desperate to lead his side into the final eight.

There will certainly be changes from the Everton match, though, with Oleksandr Zinchenko, Kyle Walker, Fernandinho and Nathan Ake set to join Jesus and Grealish in the first XI.

Rodri could drop out of the midfield to allow Fernandinho to start, with Kevin De Bruyne and Ilkay Gundogan expected to retain their spots in a 4-3-3 formation.

Walker's return could see John Stones move inside, with Ake coming into the side to partner the England international at centre-back.

Bernardo Silva, Raheem Sterling, Phil Foden, Ruben Dias, Aymeric Laporte and Joao Cancelo could be among those rested ahead of the Manchester derby on March 6, but Zack Steffen is still out with a shoulder problem, so Ederson could continue in goal.

Manchester City possible starting lineup: Ederson; Walker, Stones, Ake, Zinchenko; De Bruyne, Fernandinho, Gundogan; Mahrez, Jesus, Grealish
