Arteta is expected to make few changes from the Etihad match. In attack there will be space for the trident composed of Jesus, Saka and Martinelli. In midfield there will be Odegaard, Partey and one between Xhaka and Jorginho.
Lampard, on the other hand, is expected to rely on Joao Felix as the only forward, with Mudryk and Kanté behind him. To protect Kepa trust the trio consisting of Koulibaly, Thiago Silva and Fofana.
