Man City vs Bayer Leverkusen team news
Pep Guardiola has confirmed Man City have no fresh injuries ahead of the Champions League tie. This means the Spaniard will choose from the same squad he had available for the Newcastle game.
With a fixture pile-up on the horizon, a near fully fit squad provides Guardiola with the option of freshening up his side as the likes of John Stones, Omar Marmoush and Tijjani Reijnders are pushing to start.
Leverkusen, meanwhile, arrive in England with several notable absences to contend with. Robert Andrich is suspended following his red card against Paris Saint-Germain, while Jonas Hofmann, Exequiel Palacios and Alejo Sarco are ineligible for Champions League selection.
Former Liverpool defender Jarell Quansah is expected to start, as is former Man City midfielder Aleix Garcia and Claudio Echeverri is eligible to feature against his parent club.

Man City vs Bayer Leverkusen prediction
It was a rare off night for Erling Haaland at the weekend, though there’s a strong argument that he should have scored at least once against Newcastle.
In truth, City created enough chances at St James’ Park to suggest the result was just a bump in the road and they should get back on track especially with home advantage.
