Sterling benched as Aguero returns to Man City bench

Raheem Sterling (£11.6m) has been benched for the third home match this season as Manchester City host Everton this lunch-time.

The midfielder was considered a strong captain candidate for Gameweek 17 but was given a second rest in the last three league matches.

Riyad Mahrez (£8.5m) takes his place on the right flank while Leroy Sané (£9.5m) retained his berth on the left.

Gabriel Jesus (£10.1m) leads the line once again while Sergio Aguero (£11.2m) was named among the substitutes, alongside a returning Kevin de Bruyne (£9.7m).

Everton have gone with three at the back with Yerry Mina (£5.4m), Michael Keane (£5.1m) and Kurt Zouma (£5.0m) all in the starting line-up.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin (£5.3m) comes in to lead the attack with Richarlison (£7.1m) in a midfield role.

Manchester City XI: Ederson, Walker, Gündogan, Laporte, Delph, Sané, Silva, Fernandinho, Mahrez, Otamendi, Jesus.

Everton XI: Pickford; Mina, Zouma, Keane; Digne, Sigurdsson, Gomes, Coleman; Bernard, Richarlison; Calvert-Lewin.
