Sergio Aguero is not in the Manchester City squad to face Bournemouth amid reports Pep Guardiola has opted to rest his top scorer.
Aguero had started every top-flight match for the reigning champions this season and leads the Premier League goal charts with eight.
Gabriel Jesus start up front for City in the Argentina striker’s absence, with midfield duo Ilkay Gundogan and Bernardo Silva also back from short injury absences.
Danilo, who scored in the corresponding fixture last season, makes his first Premier League appearance for City this season in a defence where Nicolas Otamendi replaces John Stones at centre-back.
