Man City vs Chelsea team news
City had almost their full compliment available for the Madrid game, although John Stones was only able to play 10 minutes. Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne came off after asking to do so, as Guardiola confirmed after the game.
The Blues could welcome back Enzo Fernandez and Axel Disasi for the game after they missed Monday’s 6-0 win over Everton.
Romeo Lavia, Christopher Nkunku, Robert Sanchez, Reece James, Wesley Fofana, Lesley Ugochukwu and Levi Colwill are all believed to be out at this stage.
