While the league trophy looks well off Manchester City’s reach with Liverpool unstoppable, the side will be looking to move into second place when they step out to the middle today. With Leicester City being defeated on Saturday, a win for City today sees them displace Leicester City to move behind Liverpool.
In what was been a way underachieving season for the club till now, Manchester City have looked to regain some of their lost confidence. The side are coming into the contest with three wins in succession with the most recent Premier League outing seeing them best Everton 2-1.

Elsewhere, Aston Villa managed to get a crucial 2-1 win over Burnley the last time around to claw their way out of the relegation zone. They have managed to register two wins in their last five encounters but with just one point separating them and the bottom three spots, the club will be well aware that they are well embroiled in the relegation battle.
Probable Winner
With City galloping their way to some emphatic wins off late and the side up against a waning defence, there is only one winner from the contest. Manchester City will not only accrue the three points today but steadfastly canter their way to a relatively easy win today.

AVL Vs MCI Dream11 Goal-Keeper
Manchester City have been way too lacklustre in defence this season but there’s no negating the fact that they look outright favourites to come out with a cleansheet today. It’s not only down to their more well-versed defence but the majority of the ball which they’ll be seeing, something which sees us go in with Ederson Moraes from the outfit.
AVL Vs MCI Dream11 Defenders
Although City do look likely to shut down the opposition today, there is no negating the fact that they have been extremely vulnerable in defence as well. Their backline has decided to lose its compactness and go off to sleep way too often to see us limit ourselves to the one backline pick from the side.
Benjamin Mendy is someone capable of providing thrust to the side’s attacking plays to make the leftback our pick from the side. Elsewhere, from Aston Villa we are getting in both Kortney Hause and Ezri Konsa, two players who have been asked to provide wide attacking support in the side’s 3-5-2 formation.
AVL Vs MCI Dream11 Midfielders
He’s been an instrumental figure for his side once again, a season which has seen Kevin de Bruyne been hailed for his intricate brand of football. He’s at times waged a lone battle for City this season, pulling off some scorchers and meticulous passes and crosses to make the midfielder our first pick from the side.
The second pick was trickier with both Bernando Silva and Riyad Mahrez being contenders for the spot. However, with a goal the last time around, to take his tally up to five goals and six assists, we envision Mahrez to play today to make him our pick from the side.
CDM Rodrigo Hernandez will be wrapping up our trivalent of selections from the side with the player being capable of moving the ball forward from defence to attack to turnover position quickly for his side. Elsewhere, it’s just the lone pick from the other side of the slot with Marvelous Nakamba wrapping up our set of picks for the contest over here.
AVL Vs MCI Dream11 Strikers
Sergio Aguero didn’t play for Manchester City in the Carabao Cup, something which makes his involvement likely for the outfit today. He’s tallied up 10 goals and 2 assists for his side this season despite being injured for a majority of it, numbers which exult his imperious quality as a player.
Raheem Sterling is the leading goal scorer for the side right now with 11 goals and one assist to see him come in from the side as well while with the three goals and four assists, Anwar El-Ghazi is our lone pick.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Kevin de Bruyne will captain our team for the day while Sterling is our vice-captain.
