Manchester City could make changes for their second clash with Chelsea in four days, this time in the FA Cup.
City fielded a strong side at Stamford Bridge on Thursday, securing a 1-0 win to keep the pressure on Premier League leaders Arsenal. Now, they welcome Chelsea back to the Etihad for the FA Cup third-round clash, looking for a third win against Graham Potter's side in the space of seven games.
Pep Guardiola could call upon Aymeric Laporte after two games out with injury but Ruben Dias remains out with a hamstring injury. Fringe players like Julian Alvarez, Cole Palmer, Sergio Gomez and Kalvin Phillips will hope to feature over the Chelsea game and the following Carabao Cup trip to Southampton.
