Goal-keeper
R.Gulacsi (8.5 Cr) should be able to understand the importance of this match as the ball would be around him for most of the game as City can attack from any corner with any player.
Defenders
J.Cancelo (9 Cr) is improving in form and looks more confident when moving ahead to attack this season he was able to push his form when playing for his country which could be implemented for this league.
K.Walker (8.5 Cr) brings pace and strength to the defense which is crucial in right wing-back which has helped his contributions in the past with the ability to improve this season.
M.Simakan (9.0 Cr) is a young and vibrant defender who can hold his position and manage to control the defense with his timing and interceptions along with the ability to push for a counter-attack.
Midfielders
B.Silva (9.0 Cr) seemed to have lost his focus in the opening stages of the Premier League but ever since his last international match, he looks to have gained an energy boost which has helped his contributions substantially.
R.Mahrez (9.5 Cr) should play as the right-wing in the squad as he can score goals and create chances with an uncatchable pace along with his set-pieces which has earned him decent points in the past.
K.De Bruyne (10 Cr) looks fit to resume play with everything he can do to help the team usually a player can find it tough to recover their form but he has the ability to resume where he left off which should be the case in this match.
K.Laimer (8.5 Cr) has already made his mark in the Bundesliga with a goal to his name and his skills in the midfield make him an important addition to this squad.
D.Olmo (9.0 Cr) was brilliant in the Euros and earned his silver medalist in the Olympics which should boost his performance as he returns after his short break to help the team win this contest.
Forwards
R.Sterling (9.5 Cr) should be given a full match as Grealish can be rested for their matches on the weekend which should allow him to score goals and make his presence known in this competition.
F.Torres (9.5 Cr) has taken the central role in the absence of a striker however City plays in several shapes and formats which changes the perspective of how they use their positions.
Captain And Vice-Captain
R.Sterling will be our captain because of his fresh approach to the game and goal-scoring skills which should be important.
J.Cancelo will be our vice-captain of his contributions in the defense and his additional push to help the attack.

P.Gulacsi, K.Walker, J.Cancelo (VC), M.Simakan, R.Mharez, K.De Bruyne, B.Silva, D.Olmo, K.Laimer, R.Sterling (C), F.Torres
