Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how Manchester City could line up for Tuesday's Champions League clash with Borussia Dortmund.

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola is likely to name a strong starting XI away to Borussia Dortmund as the English champions look to wrap up top spot in Group G of the Champions League.

The Citizens will guarantee finishing first in their Champions League group for a sixth successive season if they can avoid defeat in Dortmund on Wednesday, having amassed 10 points from their four matches in the competition so far this season.

England internationals Kalvin Phillips and Kyle Walker remain sidelined with shoulder and groin injuries respectively as the duo face a race against time to be named in Gareth Southgate's final squad for next month's World Cup.

Sergio Gomez will not travel to Germany due to suspension having been sent off against Copenhagen in his side's last European game, but John Stones returned to the matchday squad for the 3-1 victory against Brighton & Hove Albion at the weekend and will hope for some involvement.

Club captain Ilkay Gundogan was an unused substitute against the Seagulls, making him likely to face his former club on Tuesday, while Phil Foden, Nathan Ake and Julian Alvarez will all hope for starting berths, too.

Erling Braut Haaland's brace extended his domestic tally to 17 goals in 11 appearances and he will almost certainly join former Dortmund pair Gundogan and Manuel Akanji to reacquaint themselves with the noise of the Westfalenstadion.

Manchester City possible starting lineup: Ederson; Akanji, Dias, Ake, Cancelo; Rodri, Gundogan; Silva, De Bruyne, Foden; Haaland
