Manchester City are currently in their best form this season and will like to continue in the same way, all the way to the title. It seems, they have made winning a habit and will aim for nothing less than three points against their next opponents West Bromwich Albion.
The chances to clinch the ninth win in the tenth match of the season for the current league leaders will be boosted by the fact that the Baggies will not have two of their best players in the backline in the form of Craig Dawson and Jonny Evans, who are out with injuries. However, they will still have to deal with the might of the Baggies, who can boast of one of the best defences in the Premier League.
The Citizens are looking desperate to win the supreme prize in both domestic and European competitions this term and are making the most of a strong and fit squad. They might look to field the following squad when they take on West Bromwich Albion at the Hawthorns.
Defence
The usual pair of central defenders, John Stones and Nicolas Otamendi, is set to start at the heart of the backline for the Citizens.They will be supported by the two full-backs Kyle Walker and Fabian Delph, who have performed fairly well in the role in absence of their first choice left back Benjamin Mendy.
Ederson is set to start as the goalkeeper for the Citizens once again.
Midfield
The Citizens have some quality players in their midfield in the form of David Silva, Fernandinho and Kevin De Bruyne, who have played some of the best football of their career so far this term and are expected to do the same in their next match as well. The trio will have to be kept quiet if West Brom are to take anything from this game.
Attack
Raheem Sterling might make a comeback into the side after a well-deserved break in the last weekend, watching his team’s victory against Burnley. Other than him, there might be no other changes in the attack, with Leroy Sane playing on the left-hand side and Sergio Aguero spearheading the frontline.
The Argentine is presently the second top scorer in the Premier League this season with 7 goals to his name and will look to add to that tally when Manchester City face West Bromwich this weekend. This is how they might line up:
