Manchester City
Attack ranks #2, defence #4. Expected goals in this fixture: 0.85–1.95.

Ratings are fitted on three seasons of expected goals with time decay, refreshed after every match, and blended with the betting market where prices exist (pl-dc-v2). Availability of key attackers adjusts goal rates before kickoff.
