Pep Guardiola has announced his Manchester City lineup for the Carabao Cup final against Arsenal.
Key news involves the centre-back positions, as Ruben Dias and Marc Guehi are unavailable. Dias has a hamstring injury, while Guehi cannot play because he is cup-tied after appearing for Crystal Palace earlier in the competition.
However, Antoine Semenyo, a January signing, is eligible to play as he joined the team before the semi-final match against Newcastle.
With Dias and Guehi out, Abdukodir Khusanov and Nathan Ake will form the central defence. James Trafford will start as goalkeeper, as Guardiola confirmed on Friday that he will keep his position for the final.

Substitutes: Donnarumma, Reijnders, Stones, Marmoush, Kovacic, Nico, Ait-Nouri, Savinho, Foden.
