Confirmed Man City team vs Wolves includes Laporte, De Bruyne and Jesus

Pep Guardiola has made six changes to his Manchester City side as he looks to navigate a 21st consecutive victory.

After the cagey win over West Ham at the weekend, which required Ruben Dias and John Stones goals to secure another win that took City 12 points clear at the top of the Premier League.

City can extend that to 15, albeit for 24 hours, but will need to be better in attack against a Wolves side who have caused Guardiola's side problems in recent meetings - including doing the double over the Blues last season.

With the Manchester derby coming up at the weekend, Guardiola has rotated his pack again, with Raheem Sterling coming into the side.

With Ederson in goal as usual, Guardiola has named a defence of Kyle Walker, Ruben Dias, Aymeric Laporte and Joao Cancelo.

In midfield Rodri is recalled, while Kevin De Bruyne starts for the second game in a row and Bernardo Silva replaces Ilkay Gundogan.

And in attack, Guardiola can call upon Raheem Sterling, Gabriel Jesus and Riyad Mahrez.

On the bench, City can look to the likes of Ilkay Gundogan, Ferran Torres, Phil Foden and Sergio Aguero for added firepower.

Man City starting XI vs Wolves: Ederson, Walker, Dias, Laporte, Cancelo, Rodrigo, De Bruyne (c), Bernardo, Sterling, Jesus, Mahrez

Substitutes: Steffen, Stones, Zinchenko, Garcia, Fernandinho, Gundogan, Torres, Aguero, Foden
