Jon Stones last gasp winner helped the Cityzens to beat Wolves at the weekend, but they were much more emphatic in the Champions League in midweek. Erling Haaland hasn’t scored in three Premier League matches, but the Saints’ defenders should beware - he scored twice in the Champions League, including with an extraordinary airborne finish. Pep Guardiola remains without the injured Kevin de Bruyne.
A trip to the Etihad is just about the last thing the Saints would have wanted after surrendering a two-goal lead against Leicester last time out. We know that boss Russell Martin is unlikely to change how he wants his side to approach the game, but their frequent attempts to play out from the back could again leave them badly exposed.
Are we going to have one of the shock results of the season, or will Pep Guardiola’s team keep on their relentless form? Tune in to find out — and make sure you don't miss any of the EPL action with our how to watch Premier League live streams guide.
