Benjamin Mendy is back in the Manchester City starting XI for Saturday's Premier League match at home to Watford.
It is the France international's first start in the top flight since April and Pep Guardiola will hope it marks the end of an injury nightmare for the left-back he bought from Monaco for £52million in July 2017.
Mendy has only made 17 appearances across City's back-to-back title triumphs, twice undergoing knee surgery.
He lines up in a defence that again features Fernandinho at centre-back alongside Nicolas Otamendi, in the continued injury absence of Aymeric Laporte and John Stones.
Your City line-up to take on Watford!
XI | Ederson, Walker, Fernandinho, Otamendi, Mendy, Rodrigo, Silva (C), Mahrez, De Bruyne, Bernardo, Aguero
Subs | Bravo, Sterling, Gundogan, Jesus, Angelino, Cancelo, E Garcia
