Team news
Southampton XI: McCarthy, Ramsey, Bednarek, Stephens, Targett, Romeu, Elyounoussi, Lemina, Hojbjerg, Ward-Prowse, Austin
Subs: Yoshida, Long, Ings, Armstrong, Redmond, Gunn, Valery
Man City XI: Ederson, Danilo, Kompany, Laporte, Zinchenko, Bernardo Silva, Fernandinho, Silva, Mahrez, Aguero, Sterling
Subs: Walker, Stones, Sane, Otamendi, Gabriel Jesus, Foden, Muric
Referee: Paul Tierney (Lancashire)
Score prediction: Southampton 1-3 Man City
Ralph Hasenhuttl has got the Saints pressing higher and performing better, but the way West Ham caught them out for Felipe Anderson's winner - a counter-attack off a Southampton corner - will not be lost on Guardiola.
Expect City to counter at lightning pace, and while they may still have problems at the back, the champions should prove too strong on the south coast.
