Manchester derby: Pep Guardiola takes plunge on Claudio Bravo for huge clash

PEP GUARDIOLA is ready to hand Claudio Bravo his Manchester City debut in their high-pressure derby clash.

Joe Hart's replacement was signed as he fits his boss' style and will be put to the test immediately against Zlatan Ibrahimovic-inspired United.

Hart, meanwhile, is set for a baptism of fire of his own as Torino travel to Atalanta.

Guardiola will turn to whizkid Kelechi Iheanacho up front with Sergio Aguero suspended.

The young striker enjoyed productive spells whenever he was deployed last season and had one of the best minutes per goal ratios in the league.

But Jose Mourinho has Marcus Rashford - who has scored four goals in two games for club and country  - to turn to in the battle of the raw talents.

Rashford has the edge over the City forward as he was given huge amounts of valuable game time under Louis van Gaal - becoming the youngest ever Manchester derby goalscorer in the process.
