Guardiola named his team to face Zagreb in their second group game, knowing a win would take City top of Group C.

Ederson was named in goal, with Nicolas Otamendi and Fernandinho resuming their partnership at centre-back. Joao Cancelo was given his first start at the Etihad on the right, with Benjamin Mendy on the left.

Riyad Mahrez and Bernardo Silva were preferred on the wings, with Sergio Aguero starting up front.
