Adam Lallana has joined Joe Gomez on the sidelines after suffering a hamstring injury against Crystal Palace at the weekend, while Emre Can is a doubt with a back problem.

Joel Matip is set to undergo thigh surgery and will likely miss the rest of the season, meaning Dejan Lovren should start alongside Virgil van Dijk.

Sergio Aguero has been ruled out by Pep Guardiola with a knee injury, therefore Gabriel Jesus will get the nod again.

Aymeric Laporte should be in contention despite injuring his foot against Everton, while John Stones and Fabian Delph are also hoping to be fit.

Entertaining clash

Although perhaps not as glamorous as being paired with one of the continent’s superpowers, this draw should guarantee two thoroughly entertaining matches.

Predictions

Guardiola’s team have scored four goals in three of their four away games in this competition, making odds of 6/4 (2.50) seem like solid value on them helping to ensure over 3.5 strikes here.
