team news
Pep Guardiola makes two changes for City’s UEFA Champions League quarter-final second leg trip to Atletico Madrid.
Ilkay Gundogan and Riyad Mahrez come into the starting eleven from the side that drew 2-2 with Liverpool on Sunday.
Raheem Sterling, who reverts to the bench, and the suspended Gabriel Jesus are the players to make way.
Ruben Dias, who has been side-lined since the start of March with a hamstring problem, makes a return to the matchday squad and is named amongst the substitutes.
TEAMS
Atletico: Oblak, Lorente, Savic, Felipe, Mandava, Lodi dos Santos, Koke, Kondogbia, Lemar, Sequeira, Griezmann
Subs: Lecomte, de Paul, Suárez, Correa, Wass, Santos Carneiro Da Cunha, Carrasco, Hermoso, Vrsaljko, Serrano Martínez
Kevin De Bruyne‘s second half strike was enough to hand City a 1-0 first leg victory at the Etihad Stadium.
The Belgian latched on to Phil Foden‘s ball in behind the Atletico defence before finishing under Jan Oblak on his 50th Champions League appearance for the Club.
It means City come into Wednesday’s clash with Diego Simeone’s side with a slender one-goal advantage.
Last time out
City and Liverpool served up a thrilling 2-2 draw at the Etihad Stadium in the battle for the Premier League title.
Guardiola‘s men twice led through Kevin De Bruyne and Gabriel Jesus, cancelling out Diogo Jota’s equaliser to go in a goal to the good at the break.
But the visitors responded early in the second half through Sadio Mane and while Raheem Sterling had the ball in the net for City midway through the half, VAR intervened to ensure both sides took home a share of the spoils.
Form Guide
City are unbeaten in nine in all competitions, while we’ve only tasted defeat once since early December, a run which stretches over 23 matches.
Guardiola‘s men sit top of the Premier League, one point ahead of Liverpool following Sunday’s 2-2 draw at the Etihad Stadium.
Atletico Madrid sit fourth in La Liga, with their six match winning run in the league ended by a 1-0 defeat at Mallorca in their most recent outing.
