Team News

Sheff Utd
Man City
  • Sheffield United are without no fewer than six players for Sunday's welcome of Manchester City.
  • Max Lowe, George Baldock, Daniel Jebbison and Oliver McBurnie will be assessed.
  • Yasser Larouci should take Lowe's spot should he fail to recover in time.
  • Manchester City remain without Kevin De Bruyne and John Stones for the trip to Sheffield United.
  • Bernardo Silva should recover in time following a bout of illness to feature.
  • Pep Guardiola may go with the same XI that started the 1-0 win over Newcastle.

Prediction

  • Sheffield United came close to a first Premier League point of the season last Friday night, but came undone by a late Chris Wood goal. The Blades have lost their opening two league matches following their top-flight return.
  • Conversely, Manchester City have won their two games so far and are yet to concede a goal. City eased to a 3-0 win when these sides last met in the FA Cup back in April, and have won four of their last five trips to Bramall Lane.
  • This should be a routine win for City.

  • It says Foden made an assist...He couldn't control the ball and by chance Rodri was behind him and scored. Is that an assist nowadays? lol

  • Do City backers have any money left after waiting for Haaaland to actually score?

  • @Oversonly Haaland scores :)

  • Nice to see Bernardo Silva starting the game.

  • @Marbella Agree...Likely Doku will come in for the 2nd half...Foden in for Haaland after his hattrick or for Alvarez around 65 minutes...

  • Haaland to score at least twice. Sheffield just offered contracts to two released youngsters by Man City. Gulf in class is understatement.

  • Pep will not be at the game as he has just had back surgery in Barcelona.

  • Eeeerrrrmmm.....'bout time the robot got a hattrick....the new boy might score one too for fun...

  • Man City have conceded only 8 goals in their last 15 league matches.
