And there are a lot of pre-game discussions in the papers this morning.
the Manchester Evening NewsSimon Bajkowski expects a beautiful composition of City this afternoon.
"The way Guardiola spoke before this game suggests that City will be much more powerful than Burton, the manager looking for the only major piece of English football that he has not won yet," he writes.
"De Bruyne played well at Burton, but you expect to find him in his favorite position by the time he regains his form, even if he's hooked up before 90. I would not be surprised to see Fernandinho back with Ilkay Gundogan completing the middle of the park.
"Riyad Mahrez and Gabriel Jesus should start, and it's a token over Raheem Sterling or Leroy Sane." On the back, Nicolas Otamendi and John Stones can be part of the team with Fabian Delph on the left and Kyle Walker on the right. "

I like them in the EFL Cup because their second rope is better than the other reserve players, but the teams will probably go stronger in this competition.
