Early team news

David Silva and John Stones have returned to first team training with City following spells on the sidelines and were due to be assessed of today’s game. Leroy Sane and Aymeric Laporte remain out with injury for the foreseeable future, although the latter is expected to return to full training within the next fortnight.

For Everton, Alex Iwobi remains out with a hamstring injury, while Morgan Schneiderlin is on the verge of a return to first team action. Andre Gomes, Cuco Martina and Jean-Philippe Gbamin are long-term absentees.

The Premier League champions host in-form Everton at the Etihad Stadium, where big-name bosses Carlo Ancelotti and Pep Guardiola will occupy adjacent technical areas. The Italian has won both his matches in charge of Everton since taking over, but may find Manchester City a considerably tougher nut to crack than Newcastle and Burnley before them. Kick-off is at 5.30pm GMT, but stay tuned in the meantime for team news and build-up.
