By

Both Abdukodir Khusanov and Josko Gvardiol came off of Manchester City's injured list and into the starting lineup on Wednesday night.

By

What a game and what a win for Manchester City. They are firmly in the driver's seat now for the Premier League title. A win at lowly (make that very lowly) Burnley FC on Wednesday night puts them top of the table, on 3rd tie-breaker.

Tijjani Reijnders came in for Jeremy Doku after he suffered a lower leg injury last week. With that in mind, we think he'll keep his spot in the first team for the League Cup quarterfinal vs Brentford FC. Omar Marmoush and Rayan Ait-Nouri will soon leave for AFCON, but before they do, they're both supposed to be available in midweek here. It remains to be seen if manager Pep … [Read more...] about Manchester City Predicted Starting XI vs Brentford FC
