Ruben Dias, Bernardo Silva and Phil Foden have returned to City’s starting XI for this afternoon’s Premier League meeting with Wolves.
They are the only three changes to the side that beat Borussia Dortmund on Wednesday night, with Nathan Ake, Ilkay Gundogan and Riyad Mahrez moving to the bench.
Bernardo and Foden made a big impact as second-half substitutes in that win and will feature from the first whistle today.

On injury news, Guardiola said: “Aymer is back in training but is not ready. Kyle is getting better but I am not sure if tomorrow he will be ready. We will see in the training session this afternoon.”
On Wolves, he said: “It is a completely different team to the previous seasons. They played five at the back with Conor Coady, now they decided to play with four. I am really impressed with how they play. Their position in the table is because football is unpredictable and sometimes you don’t get what you deserve.
“They have a lot of very good things, like central defenders making a good process; they have incredible runners outside and a lot of talent, Neves, Moutinho, all of them. They are huge competitors with the Portuguese mentality they have. One of the toughest teams we have faced in recent seasons. Tomorrow will be no exception. We have to be prepared because they had all week to prepare for this game. We play 12:30 tomorrow so we have to be mentally prepared.”
