Raheem Sterling
Raheem Sterling scored a brace for City on Wednesday night, and already has 23 goals in 45 matches this season. He showed his class and opportunism by delivering yet another brilliant performance for City.

The 24 year old footballer is having the best season of his career, and might increase his tally of goals with his agility and astute positioning tomorrow. Guardiola would again be depending upon Sterling heavily to score goals and help secure three points for his side.
A lot of attention would also be on Fernando Llorente too, as the 34 year old Spaniard scored the decisive goal on Wednesday from a corner kick. He remains an experienced striker, who has notched up 196 goals in his club career so far.
Llorente’s height would make him a difficult proposition to handle at set-pieces, and the City defence might have some problems dealing with that.
