Team News

Man City
Southampton
  • Jack Grealish and Jeremy Doku missed the midweek win over Sparta Prague and join Kevin De Bruyne, Rodri, Oscar Bobb and Kyle Walker on the sidelines.
  • Matheus Nunes is pushing for a start after a superb showing in the week.
  • Yukinari Sugawara is a doubt for Southampton, while Gavin Bazunu, Ross Stewart and Will Smallbone all miss out.
  • Jack Stephens returns from a ban, and his availability may see Russell Martin revert to a three-man defence.
  • Ryan Fraser is suspended after his red card against Leicester.

Prediction

  • Manchester City extended their unbeaten start to the season with a resounding 5-0 win over Sparta Prague on Wednesday night. The defending champions have won four on the spin heading into Saturday's welcome of Southampton.
  • Southampton capitulated as they fell to a 3-2 home loss to Leicester last time out. Saints sit second bottom in the Premier League and are one of four teams yet to win this season.
  • City will feel confident of claiming a big win this weekend.

  • City EZ Win, Destruction, their will be blood

  • Pep must really work at it here to do the usual 0-1 down before half time...but I have faith in City's zero creativity, arrogance and can't-be-bothered-ness...Pep needs a terrible start to feel alive so own goal for either team...
