Gabriel Jesus got the nod ahead of Sergio Aguero as Manchester City took on Watford in the FA Cup final on Saturday.
Pep Guardiola's only change to the side that beat Brighton to wrap up the Premier League title meant Kevin De Bruyne again had to settle for a spot on the bench, while Fernandinho failed to recover from injury to be involved.
Heurelho Gomes started in goal for Watford as Javi Gracia made two alterations, with Adrian Mariappa replacing Christian Kabasele in defence.
Gerard Deulofeu overcame a dead leg to start.
