If everyone's fit bar Mendy then they would be my options. Get Aguero on as fresh legs later on if we need a goal if he's fit to play. Sterling sit out of the 1st leg, maybe play the last 10-20mins, he just struggles at Anfield, would start him in the home leg though. Can't play Stones given he couldn't handle the league game at Anfield.
Torn between the 2 formations. The top one gives us more flexibility and options from the bench and is similar to what we did at home in the league but we are less familiar with it.
