Porto coach Sergio Conceicao: Gabriel Jesus stronger for Man City than Aguero

Porto coach Sergio Conceicao believes an absent Sergio Aguero doesn't make Champions League opponents Manchester City any weaker.

Conceicao expects Gabriel Jesus to start for City tonight.

He said: "Gabriel Jesus is going to be stronger than Aguero in my opinion. It is the squad Manchester City has."

Asked about City's Portugal players Joao Cancelo, Ruben Dias and Bernardo Silva all starting, Conceicao added: "I don't see no advantage if the three Portuguese players go to the game, what I wish is for us to be a little better than they were yesterday. We have to get into them."
