Man City XI vs RB Leipzig: Confirmed Team News and Predicted Lineup
- Man City face RB Leipzig at 8pm GMT on Wednesday, November 4, 2026, seeking to bounce back from recent domestic defeats to Aston Villa and Brighton.
- Gianluigi Donnarumma has looked shaky in recent weeks, prompting manager Enzo Maresca to clarify that the Italian is not a guaranteed starter for the Leipzig encounter.
- Phil Foden is expected to start in attack, while Rayan Cherki returns in the No10 role behind Erling Haaland, and defenders Marc Guehi and Nico O'Reilly push for recalls.
- Captain Rúben Dias will make his 71st appearance in this competition, while Erling Haaland poses a familiar threat after scoring five goals against Leipzig in a round of 16 tie three years ago.
- Critics have questioned Maresca's tactical use of Ayyoub Bouaddi; former Egypt striker Mohamed Aboutrika said playing him higher up "is like playing Messi in goal." The team must execute sharply in Saxony.
