Gabriel Jesus returns from injury to make the Manchester City bench ahead of Thursday's Premier League derby against Manchester United at the Etihad Stadium.

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has made three changes from the starting XI that lost 2-1 to Arsenal in the FA Cup ahead of Thursday's Premier League derby with Manchester United.

Jesus Navas and Gael Clichy are relegated to the bench, while David Silva misses out with a hamstring injury suffered at Wembley.

In their place come Pablo Zabaleta, who makes his first league start in four months, as well as Aleksandar Kolarov and Raheem Sterling.

Gabriel Jesus, who has been out for three months with a broken metatarsal, is deemed fit enough to be named among the substitutes.

Jose Mourinho, meanwhile, makes four changes to his Man United side from their 2-0 win at Burnley on Sunday.

Paul Pogba is out with a muscle injury, while Wayne Rooney, Ashley Young and Jesse Lingard are on the bench.

In their place come Antonio Valencia, Michael Carrick, Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Marcus Rashford.

Manchester City: Bravo, Zabaleta, Kompany, Otamendi, Kolarov, Fernandinho, Toure, Sterling, De Bruyne, Sane, Aguero
Subs: Caballero, Sagna, Fernando, Navas, Clichy, Jesus, Garcia

Manchester United: De Gea, Darmian, Valencia, Blind, Bailly, Herrera, Carrick, Fellaini, Mkhitaryan, Martial, Rashford
Subs: Romero, Shaw, Fosu-Mensah, Tuanzebe, Young, Lingard, Rooney
