Team news & squads
Man City team news
Despite Erling Haaland, Kevin De Bruyne and Jeremy Doku's return to training, the trio are ineligible for the final as the rule states that players from only the 23-man squad selected for the semi-finals can feature for the showdown event.
Matheus Nunes put on a show against Urawa, but may need to step down to accommodate Julian Alvarez up front, with Bernardo Silva, Phil Foden and Jack Grealish just behind.
As such, Mateo Kovacic should partner Rodri in the middle, while there might be recalls for the likes of Ruben Dias and Josko Gvardiol in the backline.
Man City possible XI: Ederson; Walker, Stones, Dias, Gvardiol; Rodri, Kovacic; Bernardo, Foden, Grealish; Alvarez.
