Leicester will make a late decision on whether to give a second start in quick succession to Jamie Vardy, who has only recently recovered from groin problems.

Manager Claude Puel has no fresh injury concerns. Matty James and Daniel Amartey remain long-term absentees.

Manchester City will assess the fitness of midfielder Fernandinho, who missed Saturday's defeat by Crystal Palace because of a thigh problem.

David Silva and Vincent Kompany could again miss out because of injuries.
 
Seen him play 5 or 6 times against good opposition and play the role really well so I beg to differ also a lot better on the ball than fernandinho.
To play the Fernandinho role you need to be able to put your foot in and break up play something that Gundogan is frightened to do either due to previous injuries or a lack of pace
 
Confident for this game. The Palace game was the first real boot up the arse this season and will help bring the players minds fully into focus. Absolutely no doubt they will be itching to make amends and KDB will be looking to take control of the games coming up.

Think Leicester might suffer a bit of an 'after the Lord Mayor's show' effect after a great win.

Pep will privately probably be admitting to himself he dropped a bollock with the team setup and fully expect to see Stones and Laporte as the central pair in defense.

Should be a good one.
 
Just a win to get back to normal and hope Rafa pulls off a surprise with Rondon hitting a 30 yrd volley in a 1 all draw.

Mn city star is pep and not the players
Man city strength comes from pep
Man city weakness comes from pep
Pep has the strategy , the tactics and the power to chose XI players for each game and is the only managers that have the luxury to bench players who can start at any top team in the PL
I think that the words from Sarri for the Chelsea match and from klopp for the palace match were enough to get into his inner world for sure and shake his insight his thinking
With the 4 points separating man city from Liverpool aove and the 2 points from tottenham below give him a pressure before the Leicester game on wednesday
Leicester game is a real test a new one to see how pep will answer and react to the situation
