Here is how Patrick Viera’s side could line up against City....
GK: Vicente Guita
The Spaniard has competition for his number one jersey from new signing Sam Johnstone.
RB: Nathaniel Clyne
He has made an impressive start to the season at right-back.

The centre-back was on the receiving end of a Darwin Nunez headbutt in their last away match and thankfully was alright.
CB: Marc Guehi
He has formed a solid partnership with Andersen in the heart of defence.
LB: Tyrick Mitchell
The left-back likes to get forward and provide his team with another outlet on the left flank.
CM: Cheick Doucoure
Crystal Palace swooped to sign him earlier this summer from French side RC Lens and he has slotted in nicely into their team.

He has been playing in a more central position which gives Viera’s side more energy and power in the heart of midfield.
RW: Jordan Ayew
The winger enjoys plenty of game time with the South London club.
CAM: Ebe Eze
He caused Aston Villa problems last weekend and will be looking to do the same to Manchester City.
LW: Wilfried Zaha
He has made great to the season, scoring three goals in as many games.
ST: Odsonne Édouard
Viera needs to decide whether he starts the ex-Celtic man or Jean-Phillip Mateta up top.
