Pep Guardiola‘s men welcome the Cherries to the Etihad Stadium on Saturday 4 November, with kick-off set for 15:00 (UK).
City have our sights set on a third successive Premier League victory and will enter the tie in buoyant mood following last weekend’s convincing Manchester derby win.
However, against a Bournemouth side fresh from picking up their first three points of the season, making it four in a row is far from guaranteed.
It leaves FPL managers with plenty of difficult decisions to mull over before this week’s transfer deadline, which is 11:00 on Saturday.

City Star
A home clash with Bournemouth in Gameweek 11 gives Kyle Walker (£5.3m) the chance to extend his fine start to 2023/24 Fantasy Premier League.
The right-back is Manchester City’s top-scoring defender in Fantasy thanks to his all-round output.
Walker has combined an assist with four clean sheets and four bonus points to claim 41 points, at least 14 points more than any other backline asset for the champions.
The 33-year-old’s creativity has been particularly impressive this season.
Walker’s total of 11 key passes is level with Erling Haaland (£14.0m) and is almost twice his tally of six from the previous campaign.
The champions’ prospects of more defensive returns this weekend also look very encouraging.
They have conceded a league-low seven goals, while Bournemouth have scored just a single goal in their last two on the road.
One to Watch
Dominic Solanke (£6.4m) has been the Cherries’ main threat this term, scoring four goals and supplying an assist.
Differentials
Elsewhere, Liverpool’s Darwin Nunez (£7.5m) and Wolverhampton Wanderers’ Hwang Hee-chan (£5.5m) are low-owned assets with strong form and fixtures.
Darwin visits Luton Town having produced attacking returns in all four of his starts this season.
Hwang has blanked in just one of his last seven outings ahead of a clash with Sheffield United.
