John Stones misses out after suffering a muscular injury in training, but Gabriel Jesus returns to the squad for the first time since breaking a metatarsal against Bournemouth in February and manager Pep Guardiola is delighted to see the Brazilian striker return to fitness.s
"(He's) much, much better, today he made part of training with us. He’s is coming back with his happiness, and we are so happy. We are going to travel, all the group, to Wembley, he will be part of that and after that we’ll see."
"The impact of Gabriel is shown by how difficult it is to come to the Premier League and have the effect he did.
"Against Tottenham, Swansea (you can see his impact). He had all Europe in his hands and he decided to come here, we cannot forget that. That’s why we are so happy that hopefully he can help us, along with Sergio and the others before the end of the season."
City's last game against Arsenal ended in a 2-2 draw, with Leroy Sane and Sergio Aguero scoring for the Blues. Overall City have won 37 of the 160 games played against Arsenal, with 40 draws and 83 defeats.
