Confirmed Line-Ups: Manchester City vs Feyenoord (UEFA Champions League)

Manchester City welcome Dutch giants Feyenoord to the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday night for matchday five of the league phase in the UEFA Champions League.

Pep Guardiola and his players are in a rotten run of form across competitions having lost all of their last five matches, culminating in their most recent destruction at the hands of Tottenham, who emerged 0-4 victors in the Premier League on Saturday evening.

The meeting in European competition is not only vital in order to return to winning ways and climb back up the league table following a 4-1 loss to Sporting last time out, but also for confidence ahead of a trip to Liverpool in the English top-flight on Sunday afternoon.

Feyenoord on the other hand have won all of their last three Eredivisie matches, but will be desperate to returning to winning ways in Europe themselves, having lost 1-3 at home to RB Salzburg on matchday four.

City have this week been boosted by the returns of both Jeremy Doku and Ruben Dias to first-team training, but continue to be without Rodri, Oscar Bobb, and Mateo Kovacic, whilst John Stones was absent from training on Monday afternoon.

Ahead of kick-off at the Etihad Stadium, here is how both Pep Guardiola and Brian Priske have lined up their respective Manchester City and Feyenoord sides in UEFA Champions League action!
