Man City boss Pep Guardiola will welcome influential goalkeeper Ederson back into his starting XI for the Premier League clash against Brighton on Wednesday.
The Brazilian stopper missed the games against Chelsea and Man Utd due to coronavirus isolation, with American Zack Steffen coming in between the sticks for the last three ganes.
Ederson returned to the bench for FA Cup duties versus Birmingham with Steffen continuing in goal, but he is expected to be restored to the starting line-up.
