Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has dismissed suggestions that Napoli will rest key players for their Champions League encounter against his side on Tuesday and added that he can name the Italian clubs starting line-up.

Napoli club president Aurelio De Laurentiis recently claimed that the club will consider resting key players for the game as they prepare for their weekend Serie A clash against Inter Milan.

Guardiola denied that he believes this and said: "Absolutely not.

"If he is travelling this afternoon with [Napoli head coach] Maurizio Sarri in the same plane, or in a private jet, he can ask him what team he is going to play.

"I think in the last 10 games they have played the same line-up. I can announce to you which players are going to play for Napoli against us."

The match promises to be an entertaining encounter though City will be the favourites as they have home advantage.
