There’s no Erling Haaland in the Manchester City squad for their trip to Leeds United this evening.

Kick-off at Elland Road is at 17:30 GMT.

TEAM NEWS

City say Haaland is “not fully fit” for the final Premier League game of the day.

Putting a bit more flesh on those bones, Pep Guardiola said Haaland picked up the problem in training on Thursday.

“Two days ago, in the last moments of training, he had some problems, a little injury. It’s not a big issue but he’s not ready for today.” – Pep Guardiola on Erling Haaland, speaking to Sky Sports ahead of kick-off

Rayan Cherki comes in for the Norwegian in the only change from Gameweek 27.

Jeremy Doku is back on the bench after recovering from injury.

Nico O’Reilly, the second-most-bought player of Gameweek 28, is again in midfield.

As for Leeds, it’s the same team that Daniel Farke sent out for the 1-1 draw with Aston Villa a week ago.

LINE-UPS

Leeds United XI: Darlow, Bogle, Justin, Rodon, Struijk, Gudmundsson, Stach, Ampadu, Gruev, Aaronson, Calvert-Lewin.

Subs: Perri, Bornauw, Bijol, Longstaff, Tanaka, James, Gnonto, Nmecha, Piroe.

Both players will likely be gone in gw31.
Which move has more gw29 upside:

a) Dorgu > Virgil (bench Senesi & Chalobah)
b) Rice > Tavernier (bench JPedro)

Seemed a clear A. Brentford, then Burnley look ripe for yielding points though.

I suppose do A29, then B30? Gives more info on Tav fitness/nailedness

  Yeah, this seems sound. Option B creates a benching headache. I won't be making any move yet. Haaland's fitness may come into it

How did thaigo look today?

Worth keeping or switch to ekitike?

Probably keep. He's on pens with nice fixtures. Haaland > Ekitike might be tempting, if he's out for a couple games
