Manchester City right-back Pablo Zabaleta makes his first start of the season after recovering from a knee injury. Eliaquim Mangala is also fit enough to return at centre-half and Fernando comes in for the injured Yaya Toure in midfield.

In attack, City's £116m forward line of Sergio Aguero, Raheem Sterling, David Silva and Kevin de Bruyne play together in the Premier League for the first time.

Newcastle make one change from the team that drew with Chelsea last weekend. Jack Colback misses out because of a calf injury and is replaced by Yoan Gouffran. Another midfielder, Cheick Tiote, is back from a knee injury and is on the bench.

Man City: Hart, Zabaleta, Otamendi, Mangala, Kolarov, Fernando, Fernandinho, De Bruyne, Silva, Sterling, Aguero.

Subs: Sagna, Caballero, Bony, Jesus Navas, Demichelis, Iheanacho, Garcia.

Newcastle: Krul, Janmaat, Mbemba, Coloccini, Mbabu, Sissoko, Wijnaldum, Anita, Gouffran, Mitrovic, Perez.

Subs: Williamson, Cisse, De Jong, Lascelles, Thauvin, Elliot, Tiote.

Referee: Kevin Friend (Leicestershire)
