Swansea team news
The Swans will once again be without Ricardo Santos, who remains sidelined with a knee injury, but otherwise, Luke Williams' squad is looking strong heading into this contest. Malick Yalcouye, who served a suspension during the weekend win over Norwich, is expected to return to the attack, giving Swansea an added spark going forward.
The manager is likely to freshen up his lineup from Saturday's outing, with Adam Idah pushing for a start up top, while Benson Manuel Hedilazio and Ishe Samuels-Smith are both tipped to feature from the opening whistle.
Manchester City team news
For Manchester City, the focus will be on the fitness of Erling Haaland, who took a heavy knock after colliding with the post in the closing stages against Villa. Even if passed fit, the Norwegian striker is unlikely to start, as Guardiola will want to manage his workload carefully.
There are also concerns surrounding Rodri, Abdukodir Khusanov, and Rayan Ait-Nouri, with late calls expected on all three. A number of changes are on the cards for City’s midweek lineup, with backup goalkeeper James Trafford set to start between the sticks. Meanwhile, Nico Gonzalez, Jeremy Doku, Nico O’Reilly, Omar Marmoush, Nathan Ake, Rico Lewis, and Mateo Kovacic are all expected to be handed opportunities from the first whistle as the Premier League giants look to reassert their dominance and secure a spot in the quarterfinals.
