This is one final push for Man City against a good Watford team. If City are able to win this game, then it is advantage Pep Guardiola and his men heading into the International break.
Watford were thoroughly beaten by Liverpool last week and then won against another good side in Leicester. Therefore, those thinking that this game against Watford will be similar to Liverpool’s battering might need to take another look.
Man City are heading into this game with two hard fought 1-0 wins and a very rare week off for the defending champions. This week allowed for players such as Gabriel Jesus and Aymeric Laporte to step up their fitness efforts for a very important finale to the season.
I have found it very difficult to predict the team against Watford on Saturday because City have a game right around the corner against Schalke, therefore I cannot see an identical team twice.
Anyway, here’s how I think Pep Guardiola will line up:
