Guéhi Set for Midfield Role Against City

Published August 27, 2026 · Updated August 28, 2026 · The Guardian

Crystal Palace's versatile defender Marc Guéhi is expected to feature in central midfield as the team faces Manchester City this weekend, while new £85m signing could make his debut.

Crystal Palace manager Enzo Maresca is considering deploying center-back Marc Guéhi in central midfield for Friday's match against Manchester City. Guéhi impressed in the role last weekend, scoring an equalizer from midfield in the victory over Bournemouth, demonstrating his adaptability despite being a defender by trade.

The versatile defender's potential midfield appearance comes as Maresca also assesses his new £85m signing, who could make his Premier League debut this weekend. The match kicks off at 8pm BST, with Liverpool facing Nottingham Forest at 12:30pm BST on Saturday, among other Premier League fixtures. moryak.biz
