The "Citizens" are going through a tough period, which is why they have been active in the transfer market, making several high-profile signings. Despite the importance of the match, Josep Guardiola has found room for two new players in the starting lineup. Abdulkodir Khusanov and Omar Marmoush will both start against Chelsea.
The 20-year-old Uzbek Khusanov was signed from Lens for €40 million. The defender will wear the number 45 shirt and play in the center of defense.
As for Marmoush, the Egyptian joined from Eintracht Frankfurt. The Premier League champions paid €75 million plus bonuses for him.
