A 4-4-2 defensive formation at Etihad?
A person close to Ancelotti has stated that this will be the Italian’s gameplan at the Etihad:

According to the person close to Ancelotti, the coach wants to use a 4-4-2 formation against City next week to defend for a longer period during the game and count down the clock.

I think Rodrygo on the bench is understandable, as we might need some fresh legs in second-half or even extra-time. Even though Asensio can provide some long range shots, he is not the dribbler, energetic, player that we might need to put some fire into the game.
