Pep Guardiola welcomed a number of internationals who featured in summer tournaments in recent days and has decided to limit how many minutes they get before the Premier League kicks off at Chelsea a week on Sunday.

Jeremy Doku, Ruben Dias and Manuel Akanji all start but Bernardo Silva, Nathan Ake and Kevin De Bruyne are on the bench alongside new signing Savinho.

Man City have overcome a handful of injury issues during the summer after Ederson, Erling Haaland and Rico Lewis suffered minor issues on the tour of the USA. They all start at Wembley.

Jack Grealish misses out due to a late injury blow.
