The hearing will be held next month and a ruling isn't expected until next year. Punishment ranges from points deduction to relegation.
"I am happy that it starts soon and hopefully it will finish soon," Guardiola said. "For the benefit of all of us, especially the club but also other Premier League clubs and all the people who don't wait for the sentence.
"I wish, from deep in my heart, we go to the trial, and the independent panel as soon as possible release what happened and we will accept like always we have.
Asked if the hearing could unsettle his players, the manager added: "No. We have been talking about that for three or four years."
