Manchester City will play Bayern Munich in the Champions League quarter-finals – with the first leg at the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday – after reaching the last eight for the sixth successive season, but they are yet to lift the trophy.
Man City and Bayern Munich meet for a seventh time in European competition. The spoils have been shared across the previous six encounters, with three wins apiece.
Following the sacking of Julian Nagelsmann last month, Thomas Tuchel will take charge of Bayern in this game and come up against Guardiola for the 11th time as manager.
Manchester City come into this match on an eight-game winning run in all competitions, while they are unbeaten in each of their last 12 games (W10 D2) since losing 1-0 away at Tottenham in the Premier League on 5 February.
Manchester City are unbeaten in the UEFA Champions League so far this season, winning five and drawing three of their eight matches.
Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting did not travel with the Bayern team to England, as he is battling a knee issue that already made him miss the game vs SC Freiburg on Saturday.
Bayern may start with a 4-2-3-1 formation with Serge Gnabry leading the line up top, while City go with their usual 4-3-3 with Erling Haaland leading their attack.
Probable XI (Man City): Ederson, Akanji, Dias, Ake, Walker, Rodri, Grealish, Gundogan, De Bruyne, Mahrez, Haaland
Probable XI (Bayern): Sommer, Pavard, Davies, De Ligt, Upamecano, Kimmich, Goretzka, Coman, Muller, Sane, Gnabry
