Manchester City vs Bournemouth – Predicted lineup and team news | OneFootball

Manchester City host Bournemouth in the Premier League this evening looking to bounce back from their FA Cup disappointment.

Pep Guardiola’s side lost 1-0 to Crystal Palace at Wembley, confirming their first season without silverware since 2016/17.

Full focus now turns back to the Premier League and climbing back into the Champions League places. City’s hopes of a place in Europe’s elite remain in their hands, but the weekend’s results saw the Citizens drop out of the top five.

Bournemouth also retain faint hopes of European qualification. Eighth place is still possible for the Cherries, a position that could yet lead to continental football.

Kevin De Bruyne will play his final home game for Manchester City at the Etihad this evening. The Belgian struggled during the loss at Wembley but is likely to retain his place.

Mateo Kovacic joined the absentee list during that final defeat, with the Croatian joining Rodri, John Stones, Nathan Ake and Oscar Bobb in the treatment room. However, Guardiola hinted he may have some of his injured players back for tonight’s clash.

“We’ll see. Some players are better. Rodri is even better day by day,” he said at his pre-match press conference.

Claudio Echeverri made a surprise debut against Palace, with academy products Rico Lewis and James McAtee failing to make the squad.
