If Pep Guardiola operates a turnover for the round of 16 of the FA Cup against Luton, Erling Haaland, announced as the starter by the press, gets off to a good start with Manchester City this Tuesday evening.
Obviously defending champion of the FA Cup (after having achieved a historic treble last year by also winning the Premier League and the Champions League), Manchester City travels to the field of Luton Town, this Tuesday evening, in the eighth of final of the competition (kick-off at 9 p.m., live on beIN Sports 2).
Erling Haaland was included in the probable Cityzens lineups given by the British press and he is well aligned from the start by Pep Guardiola to challenge the Hatters from North London. The Norwegian cyborg, scorer of 22 goals in 29 matches this season, will play his first FA Cup match of the year (he also remained on the bench during the only EFL Cup match).
Without Foden, with De Bruyne
The Catalan coach, however, rotates since Ederson, Ruben Dias, Rodri, Jeremy Doku, Phil Foden and Julian Alvarez are sent to the bench. This benefits Stefan Ortega in goals, Kyle Walker in defense, Mateo Kovacic and Matheus Nunes in the middle or even Jack Grealish on the left wing. Kevin De Bruyne also starts.
Among those promoted to the PL, we find Tim Krul (substitute in the championship), Ross Barkley, Tahith Chong or Carlton Morris in great form.
