Pep Guardiola has full complement available for must-win fixture
Pep Guardiola will have the full complement available for selection as his Manchester City side visit Bournemouth on Tuesday.
After Rodri returned from a niggling injury to play 65 minutes of Saturday’s FA Cup final win over Chelsea, City have cleared their injury list and will have every player fit for selection at the Vitality.
It is a timely boost for Guardiola and City, who are just two points adrift of Arsenal in the title race with two matches left to play.
The Spaniard made one surprise call as he named his team for the FA Cup final, leaving Rayan Cherki on the bench. He presumably took that decision to keep the tricky Frenchman fresh for this tie, so expect him to come back into the side on the south coast.
Omar Marmoush may be the man to make way after he was hooked at half-time against Chelsea.

Antoine Semenyo may be rested here as he makes an emotional first return to his former club, with Phil Foden the most likely candidate to step up.
Jeremie Doku is at the top of his game and should be restored to the lineup here.
Rodri played just over an hour against Chelsea and is also expected to come back into the side for another must-win fixture, partnering Bernardo Silva in the heart of midfield.
Rotation may come in the back line, with the likes of Rayan Ait-Nouri and Ruben Dias waiting in the wings. Marc Guehi will keep his place after a man-of-the-match performance at Wembley alongside Abdukodir Khusanov, who has come into his own in recent months.
Shotstopper Gianluigi Donnarumma will come back in between the sticks after ceding his place to cup keeper James Trafford at the weekend.
Injured: N/A
