Chelsea make three changes to the side that lost 1-0 against Porto during the week. Kepa Arrizabalaga gets his customary cup run-out as Edouard Mendy is rested, while Hakim Ziyech and Timo Werner take the places of Christian Pulisic and Kai Havertz, who drop to the bench. Mateo Kovacic has a hamstring issue, while Andreas Christensen has a muscle injury.
Manchester City change eight of the starting XI sent out for the 2-1 win at Borussia Dortmund. They too have a bespoke cup keeper, Zack Steffen replacing Ederson. Elsewhere, Joao Cancelo, Aymeric Laporte, Benjamin Mendy, Fernandinho, Ferran Torres, Raheem Sterling and Gabriel Jesus take the place of Kyle Walker, John Stones, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Ilkay Gundogan, Bernardo Silva, Riyad Mahrez and Phil Foden. All eight of those replaced drop to the bench. Sergio Aguero is out altogether for the third match running.
