It was a Gameweek 3 that Man City will certainly want to forget in a hurry as Pep Guardiola's side were put to the sword on their own home turf by Leicester. The Foxes pulling off a staggering 2-5 victory with both Kevin De Bruyne (£11.6m) and Raheem Sterling (£11.5m) each brilliantly shackled by the Leicester defence as neither midfielder could provide any attacking return for their teammates or FPL owners.

Leeds away in Gameweek provides Man City with an opportunity to bounce back against a side who have shipped seven goals in their first three league games, although did keep a clean sheet in their most recent match away at Sheffield Utd. Little separate De Bruyne and Sterling, however the latter not scoring in his first two league matches is a concern as Sterling is known as a "hot or cold" FPL asset where he can go long periods without scoring if he is not in form. For that reason and the fact that De Bruyne will be in charge of those all important penalties, the Belgian is favoured in this head-to-head.

Verdict: Kevin De Bruyne
