Six Man City players have four games to change their futures - and the outcome will tell us a lot

All eyes will be on Pep Guardiola's final four Manchester City team selections of the season.

Will John Stones and Ruben Dias return, at the expense of in-form duo Manu Akanji and Nathan Ake? Does Mateo Kovacic stay alongside Rodri, or will Jack Grealish force his way back into the side?

Guardiola must weigh up sticking with a winning team to get the four victories between City and the double, or bringing back some of the key figures from last year's treble-winning team.

One player who is getting calls from the stands to start more often is Stefan Ortega. Ederson has looked shaky in his last two games, and has recovered from an injury issue between those two outings. Guardiola has told Ortega that Ederson remains number one, despite the backup goalkeeper saying he could leave in the summer if he doesn't get enough playing time.

Guardiola wants Ortega to stay and there is a contract offer on the table, but with the German unlikely to feature in the final three Premier League fixtures, that could leave just 90 minutes to decide his future.

Gomez is firmly down the pecking order and may look to leave this summer after two seasons on the fringes. Any minutes he does get must be used to show City what he can do, or put himself in the shop window.

Matheus Nunes is unlikely to leave
