By IANS News August 23, 2025 • 16:10 PM View: 401

Premier League: Pep Guardiola has made two changes to his Manchester City side, with Omar Marmoush and Rayan Cherki both starting against Spurs. Bernardo and Jeremy Doku will be dropping to the bench allowing the French forward his first start for the club in Premier League.

That means James Trafford, Tijjani Reijnders, Rayan Ait-Nouri will all make their first start at the Etihad Stadium.

Despite positive news by Pep in his pre-game conference, confirming the return to fitness for Rodri, Phil Foden and Ederson, the trio continues to start on the bench.
