Manchester City return to Premier League action on Sunday afternoon when they host Bournemouth at the Etihad Stadium.
The Cityzens are trailing league leaders Arsenal as they look to reclaim their crown, but they have shown signs of encouragement this season after a disastrous 2024–25 campaign. Last weekend’s defeat away at Aston Villa was a rare blip, with Pep Guardiola’s side eager to get back on track.
Fortunately, City have no injury concerns ahead of Bournemouth’s visit after Rodri and Erling Haaland were given the all-clear, although the in-form Cherries will still offer a stern challenge.
Here is how City could line up for their duel with Bournemouth in the Premier League.
