Manchester City's match against Brentford will be their last competitive fixture before this winter's World Cup begins.
Most countries have now named their squads for the prestigious tournament and while Pep Guardiola will soon be focusing on the League Cup tie vs Liverpool, these City stars will be dreaming of international glory. At present 15 City stars will be heading on the plane to Qatar.
Here at MEN Sport we have broken down each group to show you where City will be represented this winter.

Group A
Netherlands
Nathan Ake is the sole City representative in Group A with the centre-back hoping to carry on his good form for his international team.
Other teams in Group A - Qatar, Ecuador and Senegal
Group B
England
City are heavily represented in the Three Lions squad with five members of their team going to Qatar. Despite injury concerns for Kalvin Phillips and Kyle Walker, both men have been given the nod by Gareth Southgate.
John Stones has been to a World Cup before and knows the pressure of expectation but Phil Foden and Jack Grealish will be experiencing that for the first time in Qatar. Zack Steffen, who is on loan at Middlesbrough, had hoped for a place in the USA squad but he has missed out this time.
Other teams in Group B - Iran and Wales
Group C
Julian Alvarez's solid start to life at the Etihad Stadium has earned him a call-up to the national team. His goals, despite Erling Haaland's performances, have been crucial for the Blues.
Other teams in Group C - Saudi Arabia, Mexico and Poland
Group D
There was unlikely to be any City representation in Group D and so it has proved.
Teams in Group D - Denmark, Tunisia, France and Australia
Group E
Spain
Aymeric Laporte has shown enough since his injury suffered last season to merit a place in Luis Enrique's squad for this tournament. Rodri meanwhile has been an ever-present in defensive midfield for Guardiola so there was no surprise to see his inclusion as well.
Germany
City captain Ilkay Gundogan will be looking forward to facing his City teammates in Group E after being named in Hansi Flick's team for Qatar. A midfield battle between him and Rodri is one to relish.
Other teams in Group E - Japan and Costa Rica
Group F
Belgium
The Blues' only representative in Group F is Kevin De Bruyne. A Red Devil for this tournament alone, De Bruyne will be hoping to become Belgium's star man in Qatar.
Other teams in Group F - Morocco, Croatia and Canada
Group G
Brazil
City's number one Ederson has been named in Tite's squad for this year's tournament. He will face a big battle with Liverpool's Alisson to be named in goal.
Switzerland
Manuel Akanji has been impressive since arriving from Borussia Dortmund in the summer and looks to have been a bargain purchase. The defender will need to come up trumps though to help his country get out of the group.
Other teams in Group G - Cameroon and Serbia
Group H
Portugal
A trio of City players can be found in the final group at this year's World Cup. Joao Cancelo has been phenomenal in the past 12 months and more than deserves his place in Qatar. Ruben Dias joins him in what is a very strong Portuguese defence.
Bernardo Silva rounds off the inclusions in midfield where he will be hoping to show some of his best form.
Other teams in Group H - Uruguay, South Korea and Ghana
