Pep Guardiola will select Oleksandr Zinchenko for Manchester City’s FA Cup tie at Peterborough, believing it will be “good” for the Ukrainian left-back as he continues to deal with his country being invaded by Russia.
Zinchenko was an unused substitute for the 1-0 win at Everton on Saturday, City’s first game since the invasion. The 25-year-old defender, who has voiced dismay at Russia’s leader Vladimir Putin, will start the fifth-round game at London Road.
