If De Bruyne could be used in this match, it would probably be much more frightening because his contribution could clearly influence the number of goals the front player will score. Accurate passes from De Bruyne can always be utilized by strikers, especially Haaland, who has lost his usual sharpness when De Bruyne is not playing and I don't think will produce big goals in this match.
I read last November 10 that he was doing well. But De Bruyne has yet to join training with Man City. Until now there is no certainty when he will return to play. There are rumors that De Bruyne was involved in writing Drake's song "Wick Man".
If he comes back then this is very good, maybe Man City have a lot of strategy options with De Bruyne. Of course Man City must make sure that he is healed and ready to play.

If a player is forced, he will most likely be injured and will disturb the plans of the manager and the fellow teammates. He has recovered fully only go ahead from.the manager and the medical practitioners when his bodywork have been fully recovered. Involving in Drake's music has no relation with football. But it is a good thing to learn he is back from injury.
Chelsea has also rumoured that Nkuku will be ready for the next game against Chelsea, he has been absent since the World Cup were he was sent packing after the hard tackle from Camavinga.
