Goal-keeper
Ederson Moraes (8.5 Cr) was brilliant last season after he was able to share the golden glove with his fellow Brazilian teammate Allison which highlights his ability to play a responsible role in this fixture.
Defenders
Trent Alexander-Arnold (9.5 Cr) played consistently last season and was able to provid assists and goals to help the team which can keep him motivated to showcase his strengths in this contest.
Andrew Robertson (9.0 Cr) was able to manage his side in the game with the full-backs being quite high on the pitch to enjoy the attacking tactics which can be taken up a notch for this clash.
Virgil van Dijk (8.5 Cr) is a threat from set-pieces with amazing discipline to handle the backline which can allow him to maintain his contributions with his interceptions and tackles for this match.
John Stones (8.5 Cr) has managed to stay on top of his game in his limited game time last season but can find the net in such knockout football matches which can be witnessed in this fixture.
Joao Cancelo (9.0 Cr) was a powerhouse in the last season with his understanding of the game plan and his place in the team which could keep the new number 7 ready to attack in this contest.
Midfielders
Thiago Alcantara (8.5 Cr) enjoyed an amazing season with Liverpool and will now aim to showcase his strengths to add points with his consistent passing skills.
Kevin De Bruyne (10 Cr) has managed to score consistent goals in the pre-season friendly matches which should keep him motivated to maintain this form which makes him our prime choice for this encounter.
Rodri Hernandez (8.5 Cr) is also a threat from his position as he will look to make the most of his shooting from long distances with greater potential that can be achieved in this season.
Forwards
Mohamed Salah (10.5 Cr) was the golden boot winner with 23 goals last season in the league which could keep him focused on handling the attack which makes him a potential game changer.
Erling Haaland (10 Cr) scored his first goal for City against his former rivals Bayern Munich which highlights the consistent goals he can bring to this team with greater potential to develop in the series which makes him our prime choice for this encounter.
