Sergio Gomez could make his Manchester City debut at his former club Barcelona this week.
City are in Barcelona for a charity match to raise funds for former Barcelona goalkeeper and coach Juan Carlos Unzue, who has the incurable ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis). Pep Guardiola has promised a full team will be at the Camp Nou, but suggested he will prioritise those who haven't featured as much in the opening three weekends of the Premier League.
That could give a clue over how many regulars feature, as City have a number of fringe players, including new signing Gomez, ready to step in and ease the load on the squad ahead of Saturday's clash with Crystal Palace.
