Dennis Ethan: Kevin De Bruyne starts! The best player in the league.

It's a first league start of the season for the magical Belgian, although he has started three cup games in 2018-19, including the Carabao Cup tie between the two sides just over a week ago, which Manchester City won 3-1 on penalties. De Bruyne's season has been hampered by a knee injury, so can he impress today?

Let's go.

It is a busy Boxing Day programme in the Premier League with all of the top six in action. Manchester City fans will be paying attention to league leaders Liverpool, who entertain Newcastle.

Tottenham entertain Bournemouth, Chelsea play at Watford in the late game, Arsenal are away at Brighton with Manchester United entertaining bottom of the league Huddersfield.

Leicester were another team to spring a big surprise over the weekend with their win at Chelsea.

It seems all is not well between Jamie Vardy and Foxes boss Claude Puel, with Vardy complaining that Puel's playing style does not suit his game., external

We saw how important Vardy is to Leicester with his goal at Stamford Bridge. They are a different team when he plays, and I don't see how Puel can leave him out - especially with his job supposedly in doubt., external

Sergio Aguero and Kevin de Bruyne started Saturday's game on the bench but Guardiola has got to pick his strongest team in this game, because they need a quick return to winning ways.

Lawro's prediction: 0-2

If Leicester really go for it, they may get a draw. I can't see them getting any more than that.

So Manchester City aren't superhuman after all!

Saturday's home defeat to lowly Crystal Palace sent shockwaves across the country, bringing smiles to the faces of Liverpool supporters and a few nods of approval from neutrals excited at the prospect of a genuine title race.

Pep Guardiola isn't used to losing. It will hurt, and we can expect his side to bounce back in style.

A wounded animal is coming to the King Power Stadium, where Leicester have underwhelmed their fans all too often this season. They proved what they're capable of at Chelsea - repeating that success would be an incredible achievement but surely City can't lose again? Can they?
