Pep Guardiola must decide whether or not to shuffle his star-studded pack when Manchester City continue their European charge against Young Boys in Switzerland on Wednesday night.

City - who lifted the Champions League trophy for the first time last season as part of their historic treble - have made a perfect start in Group G this campaign with two wins from two.

However, there is still work for them to do to progress following those victories over RB Leipzig and Crvena Zvezda.

John Stones - now back in the fold - could be one to miss out against Young Boys for both the above reasons. Kevin De Bruyne (hamstring) is the only injury absentee for City right now.
