Vincent Kompany, Ilkay Gundogan and Gabriel Jesus all miss out through injury, although Pep Guardiola said that he expects Kompany to be available for the FA Cup replay against Huddersfield next week.
City's manager spoke in glowing terms about tomorrow's opponents, and is anticipating a tough game against the French league leaders.
“I am really impressed how good Monaco are. They are killers in the box. Both holding midfielders are intelligent, physical, strong.
“It is the most beautiful competition to play. We have to do our best. If not, we don’t have chance to get to next round.
“City’s recent history is quite good, but they weren't here for a long time. Europe will be analysing us, to kill us if we don’t win.”
